Thank you again for showing us the realistic repair work. The realism makes it feel like you're building it yourself, which is fun. looking forward for next time. 今回もリアルな修正作業を見せてくれてありがとう。 そのリアルさが自分で組み立てている気分になって、楽しいんです。 次回も楽しみにしています。
素晴らしいコメントをありがとうございます。サポートに本当に感謝しています。あなたがまだ私のビルドを楽しんでくれて嬉しいです。 Thank you for your great comments, I really do appreciate the support. Glad that you are still enjoying my builds.
That was one 'hull' of a good video... "I'll get my coat!" 😆
Thanks Martin,🤣
Looking forward to it😂
Nice to get the bathtub built , gotta agree with you sir, telly 📺 is rubbish I only watch documentary channels now. No need to worry about storing your tanks ,plenty of storage space in my garage here in the Black Country 😂😂.
🤣
Thanks for orienting your work so that your viewers are able to see what you’re doing even though it sometimes makes the job more challenging for you. I’m really enjoying this series so far and looking forward to whatever comes next.
Thank you, that means a lot. I really want to share all the experiences of building one of these incredible kits...the good and the bad.
Good work there Tony👍. As a foot note the crews called it the iron coffin as it was so difficult to get out of in a hurry…
Thank you. Yes I read that. It was very tight for space internally and had lots of blind spots.
WOW. It's really cool.
Thank you
It would certainly have been a cosy existence
I see these 1/6 scale all-metal _Armortek_ scale models as a tribute to the real historic vehicles they represent. To all the men who lived and died with and by these machines in the most terrible of conflicts. The Hetzer was a hunter-killer, remaining concealed and destroying tanks from well-camouflaged vantage points, in which it managed very well. Historically accurate down to the last nut and bolt, this will be a model to be proud of.
I could not agree more. The more I get into this build the more I respect the engineering that went into it. Thank you for your continued support.
Morning Tony great video as always ,did think we was finally going to hear a bit of swearing there 😂😂😂
Thanks Steve....Oh, I can assure you that away from camera there is no shortage of swearing🤣

Really good progress there, Tony. I'm impressed how patiently you reversed out of that small mistake - I'd have half refilled my swearbox, I'm sure. Good tip re writing the bracket part number onto the base plate in felt pen with those brackets all looking similar to one another👍 Cheers, Keith
Thanks Keith....Most mistakes can be recovered and my swear box is almost full🤣 Really appreciate your feedback and thanks for supporting what I do.
Be cool if they made air soft for 1/6 scale. Be more cool if the 308win cartridge could be adapted to the tank. Thanks again Tony
Yeh that would be cool...A lot of builders have tried and some have been sort of successful, but there is literally no room in theses tanks for the additional kit required. I would love to see a full re-coil when the gun is fired...maybe one day😀 Thanks for your continued support.
That's pretty cool! If only it was 6x bigger
🤣 If only...Thank you for watching and commenting.
This is really cool!
Thank you.
Again time flew by watching this episode. Would magnetic tools help getting all those screws and washers on? How do you make a thread going, when the screw won’t get in flawless? Thank you for showing this vehicle grow. It’s your „fault“ that I now dream of getting such a kit! 😉
Thank you and glad that you are enjoying this build. My big old sausage fingers don't help sometimes😂 There are occasions when a tap kit is required for some of the fixings as the CNC holes need to be re-threaded, but thankfully not often. Having said this, I just had to use a 12mm tap on the bogey threaded holes to help install the main axle bolts. Video up soon. I hope you do go on to get one of these. They do have stocks now, but they will sell out. They do have different payment options, so it may be worth getting in touch with Armortek.
Morning, Tony looking good! It's bigger than I Expected thought they were tiny One good thing is no torsion bars, I think those have a kind of leaf sprung suspension? Way you're going bud have it knocked up by Christmas 😁
Morning Gary, It is bigger than I expected also. Yes, these have a leaf spring suspension which I am working on now. Amortek have done a great job on these and they look as if they will operate in the same manner as the real thing. I think the top section alone will take me to Christmas :-)
Another great assembly video. Thank you for making it a little easier for others. The t-shirts you wear (Tiger, M26 and now the Jagdpanzer) look super. Are the t-shirts available to purchase? Thanks-Ed from Florida.
Thanks Ed, very much appreciated. I design these t-shirts myself and have them printed locally to me. My son did suggest looking at getting into selling these but I didn't think there would be a call for them and I wouldn't have a clue as to how to do it. Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great to watch after a wet dog walk this morning. When finally tightening up the bolts to create the completed hull did you have to remove nuts one at a time before tightening to add thread lock or was their sufficient room to squirt in? Cheers.
Hi Warren, Hope you didn't get too wet. "Storm Babet" is really giving Britain a reminder of the power of mother nature. I left the nuts loose as there was room to apply the thread lock without removing them. Thanks for your continued support.
I look forward to each weeks video and will certainly have to get one of these kits soon. Got the workshop, got the tools, just need a little more cash!!!! Cheers.
