Hi! Received my mount in great condition. Very nice detail. I compared it with the real MG-34 Lafette mount I have in my collection. Well done!

Thanks Ken!


The second batch has been completed. These are now available for $15, plus $5 shipping to anywhere in the US. Reply if you are interested. I'll put any remaining ones on ebay in about two weeks if they are not sold to board members.

Sent all orders out today. I included a hex bolt, nut and some poster tack so that you had some options other than glue to put the two pieces together and keep the rotation working.

I've got about 5 left.

I just want to say this thing is AMAZING and makes a nice little display with some Germans crewing it. I've not painted mine up yet, but I'm excited to do so when I get the right paint colors.

It fits the MG-34 from Marauder Gun Runners very well.

Hats off to Grunt1, especially with the intricacy and delicacy of it. I work with resins and I'm impressed at every turn by this piece.

Not to mention he put up with me not being home to pay him for a while, so I appreciate his patience too.

Ok, those went fast. So fast that you guys requested about 2x what I had on hand. I'll work out the details with each of you and let you know if are getting the ones I have in stock now or if you might need to wait for the next run (3-4 weeks). Anyone else that's interested, just post here and/or PM me and I'll make sure I have enough.

For that price I may nab another one Grunt1... I loved the first one, and so a DAK paintjob would be nice to have too, with all the DAK 2-packs I picked up and all.

Mine arrived and I really like it. This is going to add some much needed fire power to my diorama.
Thanks, Grunt!
