More great progress, Bro.  Yup, wheels on a stick should be happening in the not too distant future.  |

Right, hull tub bits all played nice and in true Tamiya style, assembly was a breeze.  |

Time to go to work Got a cannon. It confusing to put it together. Had to straighten this out.  Ta-Da.   The upper and lower Hull had a post molded on. In order for the Gun to fit, they needed to be removed.    Next up the turret. Before.  And after.  And there's the Morning's work.  AAACW. |

Thanks, Boys.  Yeah, can't figure out the post thing. The only thing I can think of is for alignment. But even that doesn't make sense cause nothing lined up if you use them.  |

Both of you are making excellent progress. Jeff, thanks for the memories of when I built my Elefant. Interestingly enough, mine didn't have any post in the way....
Nice save Jeff, now bring 'em home guys!

And onwards. The wheels I normally like to add late on in the build but for a couple of reasons you are forced to do them early. This potentially makes fitting the tracks very tricky but if Tamiya says that's how it has to be done, who am I to argue?  |

Total sweetness, Bro. I'm in middle of trying to figure out the suspension on my kit.  |

Chaps. Going to be adding Tamiyas detail up set.  Its not cut out for you so much careful scoring will need to take place...  Tried one piece so far but the result looks very promising.  Gonna take a while to cover this off so be patient... |
