Default Late rollers for Tamiya TigerI preview by HennTEC

Hello tankers,

Hello tankers,

in the 17-18. Calendar week coming new rollers on the market.

The rollers are rotated from the full, double ball bearings (milled bearing seats) and a twisted stainless steel axle get.

The wheels and hub caps from Resin has cast Hermann.

I have stayed here a couple impressions of the production, at the moment I'm in the final assembly and further I will show pictures later.




Here the untreated blanks from the CNC machine ..






and here after the last finish (polish)








Regards,Guido

Just make sure that when the covers are poured into the molds, they are done so on an even surface unlike what WECOHE did resulting in MORE work for the builder!

Hello,

@ Jeff: My motto: Never make the mistake of others.

and here are some pictures what the customer gets.

The casters must be bolted to the tank just yet, and the
fasten center cap with some glue

I'm in for a set. I'm always looking for an excuse to buy a second Tammy Tiger I, only at this point it's looking like 2016 for bench space.

Hello gentleman.

the weight of a complete set inclusive axes is exactly 520Gramm.

This set can be ordered in my shop. I can send anywhere in the world.

I will provide overseas clients my paypal address after the order in my shop for a fast payment. The shipping by insured delivery costs from Germany to the USA for example, only 10 Euros.

Hi Guido, Will you be making a correct set of steel wheels to fit the Late Panther G or F?

Did anyone on here ever invest in a set of these?
If so, how about a review?
Never heard a peep after the above announcement.

Guido, any plans to make more?

I think the Taigen and asiatam late wheel offerings stole his thunder - these are expensive in comparison - not sure if these fit the Tammy Tiger 1 though.

Hello,

the late rollers are still out of stock,I do not know if there are enough orders to launch a new series.

To put it here to speak clearly, I think the quality of rotated ( lathe) components can not compare with rollers which are made of cast metal.

Of course, such components will not achieve the numbers of low-produced components.

Guido,
Thanks for the reply.
Since the last production appeared to sell out in 2 weeks, I would think there would be more interested customers.
The quality of your wheels appeared to be very high, at least in the pictures.

Did you ship any to customers in the US?
You mentioned ETO in your original posting, any chance of that happening?
I would be interested if you did another run.
