<P>I downloaded the pdf file with the plans <A href="http://www.cardmodels.net/forum/attachment.php?s=f4c8b43943a4a4cb9a78bf350b5b638b&attachmentid=602&d=1138787489">http://www.cardmodels.net/forum/attachment.php?s=f4c8b43943a4a4cb9a78bf350b5b638b&attachmentid=602&d=1138787489</A></P> <P> and resized to match the correct scale - it does mean saving the images as a screen dump then splitting and resizing but it saves a lot of working out very funny angles - Just transferred shapes to styrene then glued together with blocks of thick sheet inside to reinforce corners </P> <P>[img]http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b6ce28b3127cce8ddb7e11904f00000016100AYsmzJm2asmIA[/img]</P> <P>not very neat on mine but it worked ok - turret was formed from a ring of styrene rolled and glued to disc - guns are wood dowel and plastic , lights are biro tube , spotlight on roof is plastic tube from accounting machine paper roll . rivets are slices of plastic (evergreen) rod glued with revell liquid cement - mark positions with pencil apply spot of glue , apply rivet. afterwards sand to flatten and round edges. Was a cheap build and runs well on gandy dancer chassis.</P> <P>This site has info on details http://derela.republika.pl/drais.htm</P> <P>Would love to take orders but for the work involved but its really easy to build yourself</P>
