Hey Guys,
Just a heads up mould making has started and with a lot of luck production will start next week.
I hope that the main gun moulds are not worn out if so I will have to remake those as well.
I already have 8 preorders . Now I will accept regular orders.
I am asking $100 for the full gun and platform. This will come in kit form cast in white resin. UNPAINTED AND THE MODELER WILL HAVE TO ASSEMBLE IT.
The kit will have about 62 parts made of brass , copper , stainless steel and the white resin.
The guns elevate and the platform will spin a full 360 degrees.
The gun sight will move with the guns just like the original !!!
The kit will have 12 mags 4 for the guns and 8 for the ready mag holders.
PM me if you would like to place an order.

OK,
The flaks are getting sorted , pieces parts sanded and what not.
I have them going out the door at $100 each. I will hold this sale untill Sunday nite. Then the price will go up to $125.
There are over 50 pieces to this kit . That means over 600 parts that I have been handeling. So things are not as fast as would like them to be.
I have about 2 kits worth of parts. These parts are regects. I have 2 choices throw them away or sell them at a reduced rate.
These kits will have LARGE HOLES IN THEM and other things wrong with them. BUT THEY WILL MAKE A COMPLEAT KIT.
EACH PART MAY HAVE ISSUES WITH THEM. SOME GOOD PARTS WILL BE THROWN IN TO MAKE A COMPLETE KIT.
IT WILL TAKE A LOT MORE WORK TO MAKE THESE BUT IT WILL BE WORTH IT.
I will sell them for $50 each plus shipping. First come first served.
Be warned there will be no return on these reject kits.
Those interested PM me.
With a lot of TLC somebody can get a flak kit at half the price.
If there is no interest . I will simply throw them away.

The flaks are all done and will be shipped today
Thanks to all of you guys who got in on the deal.
The flaks are now up to their full price of $125, I will still sell them at the discounted rate if you buy 2 for $100
Or 3 or more for $85 each
There are a few guys who have contacted me and yours are on hold for $100 no worries there
I need to get done with a few consignment pieces then I will get back onto the M-10.
Thanks to all of you who have supported me in these trying times.

With full crew and the solid resin main base there is a lot of weight in the center. So it may be a good idea to shim the base before it starts to sag.pickelhaube wrote:It has come to my attention that with a full set of crew the base plate may start to sag. So if you have ordered one of my flaks you may have to shim up the center so that this does not happen. You could use a rod or dowl for this or a few pieces of styreen.
After you put the leveling pads on measure to the bottom of the trailer plate . It should be about 5/16 - 3/38 of an inch or so.
I will build this into further runs.
Let me know if you have any questions.
