jeff72 Posted June 17, 2021 Share Posted June 17, 2021 Anyone used brass rods to replace the plastic cleaning rods on their Tiger 1/35, If so what width did you use? Thinking about 1 to 1.5mm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo NZ Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Have you considered cocktail sticks? The rods were wooden with brass ferrules. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackG Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 Found this photo of a Panther cleaning rod, conveniently alongside a measuring tape. Calculations show a probable diameter of 43.2mm, which is close to 1.2 to 1.3mm at 1/35 scale. regards, Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitewolf Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I would recommend using the Aber set of Tiger Barrel cleaning rods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
