They seem to be quite correct. Only the one on the right is upside down -
The wheels tracks and side skirts. Extending the kit's side skirts was not a good idea. So new are made. All parts are prepainted. Because the model has side skirts there will be little visible of the wheels, suspension, tracks etc. The return rollers are certainly hard to see. So I don't pay much attention to them. All "axes" have different lengths. Will be adjusted later after drying The sprocket need to be adjusted So that all wheels are in line. A few drops of CA glue. This significantly shortens the drying time. With these old stiff tracks you would otherwise have to wait days for all the glue between axles and wheels to harden. Ready for track mounting and clean up the axes. The tracks are of course too short because the hull has been extended ... ( No worries ) And, i invested in some mobile artillery. And some sheet and round strip Thanks for following

Only one original mast top from the 16th century exists, and that's that of the Mary Rose. (Replicas of 16th century ships are not really reliable for information) I solved the problem like this (post 546).

My first idea was also a Panzerbuchse. And it took me a while to figure out what it actually was.

would it be acceptable to have the 251 towing a 7.5 cm anti tank gun? If not what vehicle should I get? This is possible. but it is rare, then you build a Sd.Kfz 251/4. Normally this version was intended to pull a 7.5cm artillery gun. But 7.5 Pak40 is certainly not wrong Becourse the 251 was an expensive vehicle, these were very rare. Which vehicle to tow a PAK40 Normally an Sd.Kfz11 (the unarmed version of the 251) or a Steyr Raufenschleffer Ost (There may be more vehicles i think) As the war progressed: Almost anything heavy enough to tow a PAK 40 Examples: A Steyr 1500 , trucks all types: opel, Ford, Mercedes, etc. Ps, One of the final versions was the 251/22 You never guess .... a Pak 40 mounted on a 251

Good news my friends. A quiet day at work, and already found useful information. We may be start builing the weasel family earlier than planned. http://www.lzmodels.com/135-American-M29C-Weasel.html https://lzmodels.wbs.cz/35503/m29c_instructions.pdf http://www.lzmodels.com/135-American-M29-weasel.html https://lzmodels.wbs.cz/35501/m29_instructions.pdf

If you need info about the 251, just call 🧐

Absolutely no idea. It was a stack of magazines I hadn't looked at in 10 years.
-
Thanks for all the help. Much appreciated. I do most of my research at work when the boss isn't looking, and printing is also for free 👍. I put this on my "to do" list at work 😇, So we can build weasels next winter. Meanwhile, the conversion looks to be ready. As a test, all white parts are painted with a thin layer of green. Looks successful, if I say so myself

I'm waiting impatiently

Thank you, thank you .Far too much credit for me 👍 I came across another abandoned project. A batch of M29 's. One example in resin (no manufacturer) bought somewhere long ago at an exhibition of IPMS. Stupid me sold the series of magazines ( Vehicule Militaire International) which contained the building descriptions. And did not make copies This will probably be a project for next winter.
