1/6 Stuart - grab handle gauge?
I realize that the original grab handles on the 21st Century Stuart are overly thick, but I have not found anywhere how thick of a gauge of wire would be correct. I am not talking about stuff like the long rail on the battery lid or stuff like that - I mean the standard handles that 21st Century wisely made of nylon and mounted with screws (to make it easier for us to remove them). I am thinking that a thick wire metal hanger would be about right, but that is a guess... Or can anyone tell me how thick these handles are on a real Stuart? It would be easy enuf to divide that number by 6 to get the scale right.
Thanks for any guidance.

Man I'd be by all over the Armorpax stuff I could get my hands on...be pretty tuff to custom build that kind of detail and even if you could why do it when all the parts you need are just a few clicks away?...

I can't speak for the OP, but for me, it's more fun as well as way cheaper..

I have a set of the turret Lift Rings and the Towing Eyes I purchased many years ago.
Some things you just cannot recreate but the Grab Handles I do agree should be quite simple.
