Dragon Tauch Panzer FUEL TRAILER

[kryptosdaddy]

And right now only the fuel trailer...

How do like my high tech graphics! The trailer is built from the 'C' sprue. There are 25 pieces, 16 of these are chocks for the drums- leave these off and you could maybe use this for anything...

The barrels consist of three pieces each, one tee and one 90', then you get into the other parts- this is just a hose and a little PE for the barrels straps. The wheels are NOT built to rotate- maybe I'll change that one.

This would make a nice little kit on its own, maybe Dragon released this to secure the rights for the trailer? Time will tell- I'll begin this Monday afternoon.

Nice!!!!! Are you gonna build it stock as a fuel trailer??

 

[kryptosdaddy]

Yes, I'm building it as Dragon intended. But with those chocks you dont have to attach the drums to the trailer.

Just over one hour of work- 21 pieces represented here on the trailer alone, just 6 on the barrels- of course the PE and the hose are missing as are the fittings for the drums- the wheels snap on tight enough so i may not have to glue them on- I feel things are a bit to delicate to try and install an axel- well maybe...

Tiny thing- but really neat! CR

Almost done and Dragon's instructions for the PE are WRONG! They give the wrong # to the buckles for the barrel straps- the number they give corresponds to some chain for the tank.

Just moving this up to make the pic posting easier...
