Any Interest in a TOW Launcher?

Post by Gunner » Sat Apr 09, 2005 7:57 am

I'm working on a TOW launcher for the LAV-25/M-113.

It's based on a 1/25 carded model that I've scaled up.

I'm only just now starting to cut the pieces out of sheet styrene, much less build anything, but I thought I would try to gauge interest and determine how many extras, if any, I should cut.

My plan is to photograph each step of the process and provide either a CD or a printout.

I'm not planning on working against a deadline, or start talking $ until I have the process down pat (I've only cut two pieces so far, out of probably 100 that will have to be cut.)

I would be interested in one, maybe a few. I'm always looking for custom parts for my projects! Are you building them entirely out of sheet styrene? Keep us posted on your progress.

So far, it looks like everything can be done from either sheet or tube styrene, but, like I say, I'm only just starting this process.

Will post pics once I have any that look like anything other than odd shaped pieces of white sheet styrene...

I would be intersted in one.
Give us updates when you get further along in the project.
Pics are cool to see what people are working on.
