RE: Panzer III Asiatam Hull
Well, got the hull in today. Oh how I do like the rubber road wheels, think that's my favorite part. Unfortunately the exhaust guard came broken. I think this was directly from the factory, cause the broken chip isn't in there. Guess they couldn't care at all and packaged it anyway.
Anyone know if the suspension can betweaked? First think I noticed is there is a lot of inconsistencyin the torsion suspension. Most of the weight will be carried by the end road wheels, I'm certain...since those compression springs have quite a bit of resistance.
But the four inner road wheels are ones that I'm focused on. Each one from the other has variable play that offer very little support if any. One may take a bit to suppress, while the next one could be raised up with a feather.
Not sure if this is how it were designed, maybe this is evennegligiblewhen I finally make the full transfer....guess time will tell!

Nice BP, I'll use that method when I start on the minenraumer.
At the risk of exposing myself as an idiot. How did anyone figure out how to put the locking mechanism together and use all these extra screws is beyond me! The six pictures given in the instruction don't go into detail of assembly......not even close.
Seriously.....I have never not been able to eventually figure something out with the right nudge....but I think I'm gonna need some thorough explanations and guide on this.
