They do a barrel too, but it's out of stock. I have everything I need to get started though, thank you. Didn't find that myself in a half day of Googling.

Andy J Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 So no build update today to busy at work . However my buckets and other do dads have arrived so I thought I'd add a few pic's Not bad for less than £4 imo even though I ordered 2 sets by mistake . So I have a question regarding the Jerry can's and the Tiger l. Would the Tiger have carried around Jerry can's for fuel and water and if so is there a specific place where they would have been stored ? The reason I ask is because I have lots of Jerry can's available to use and could maybe use a few on the Tiger. Oh and I've ordered some camouflage netting as well as I know for sure this was stored on the Tiger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All painted different colours too, for oil water &c. Of course I'm never going to find it again now it would be useful Andy 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Longbow Posted December 23, 2020 Share Posted December 23, 2020 Btw guys. Thise cans would Nit be carried in the vehicle if there was Any chance of going into combat Also, some kits come with an armored cover for the turret fan/ventilator. This cover had to be removed for the gun to fire. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First off spell checker is widely available nowadays and secondly I'm going to add a plethora of do dads to my Tiger build because I can and thirdly i need to take a lot more time over my armour builds in the future so they end up the best work I can possibly do.......I think I may be turning into a sort of "Mini Steve " 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
