  1. German WWII Aircraft Maintenance Toolkit (5145 & P72006) 1:32 & 1:72 CMK by Special Hobby It’s no secret that aircraft are high-maintenance, much of it preventative because bailing out of an aircraft that has broken down is dangerous, and the resulting crash is expensive at the very least. Ground Crew are tasked with always keeping the aircraft in a state of readiness, or at least as much as humanly possible. Their toolkit is extensive, but a simple kit was the base for most repair or maintenance activities, resorting to the big tools when necessary. During WWII all sides had their toolkits, and this pair of sets depicts a typical German kit. As usual with CMK's resin sets, they arrive in the familiar clear vacformed box, with the resin parts safely inside, and the instructions sandwiched between the header card at the rear. German WWII Aircraft Maintenance Toolkit 1:32 (5145) This set includes five toolboxes, two of which are opened up to display the tools in their scissor-linked trays, with another open-topped box for which you’ll need to supply a piece of wire or rod to create the carry-handle. Two other boxes also need rod for their handles, as does the kettle, which is supplied in addition along with an oil can with precision applicator and a small rectangular can that completes the set. The two opened boxes have separate lids, and two of the other boxes have rounded resin handles, while all the tools are cast into the trays, with extreme detail and excellent definition that look highly realistic. German WWII Aircraft Maintenance Toolkit 1:72 (P72006) Containing the same elements as the larger set above, this set is instead directly 3D printed on two printing bases, with each toolbox complete apart from the lids that are printed vertically around the other parts. There is no need for any wire, as all the handles have been precision printed, even down to the kettle, which makes life a little easier. The parts are all attached to their bases by fine tendril-like supports, and due to the orange resin that is used this shouldn’t be a problem, as it combines strength with flexibility – two very desirable features when 3D printing. On my sample there were a couple of small depressions in the top of one of the closed boxes, but a little filler will solve that issue in short order. Conclusion A pair of highly-detailed sets that will add candid detail to any maintenance diorama or vignette in your chosen scale. Highly recommended. Review sample courtesy of
