I'd better buy some styrene before the supply runs dry
Cannot wait for this build Diverfrost
Are going to reuse the hinges or make/buy new ones?
Cheers

Hey Greg One thing that I do after removing the battery box is to flood the hull with resin. This does a heap of things: 1. It gives the hull back its rigidity - no more hull twisting 2. Provides a nice flat surface for the internals 3. Sures up the mounting posts for the motor (are you raising the motors 3mm???) 4. Adds some extra weight - don't have to use metal wheels or tracks 5. Waterproofing - (not an issue with the Pz IV as this is the most waterproof hull) Cheers Keivn G |

Well you know me Greg, for me the lazy way or the highway. Mix the resin pour in to the right level and wait 5 minutes for it to set - jobs done. IMG_0104.JPG IMG_0105.JPG IMG_0106.JPG |
