• Pardon the dust while the boys rebuild the site.

    The board will be in a state of disarray as I get things sorted out, for a little while at least.

    The new incarnation is using Xenforo as the system software. It is much like what we are used to, with a few differences. I will see about making a FAQ to help point out the differences for the members.

     

    One IMPORTANT difference for all of us old timers is that the 'mail' system is replaced with what are called 'conversations'/

    There is no 'Inbox' or 'Out box' or 'Sent' folders anymore.

    Think of Conversations as private 'threads' or topics that don't exist in a forum, that you start with another member. NOTE: Conversations can include more than one member if you or someone else in the conversaion, likes.
    Takes a little getting used to but I am sure you all can get a hang of it.

     

    Only a slightly modified default default Xenforo style is available for now. Once the new SAG style is ready it will be available.

    All existing users should be able to login with their usernames and passwords once the site goes up.

     

    If anyone has difficulties logging in please contact me at sixthvanguard@gmail.com.

     

    Thank you for your support and patience. I know it has been a loooong road.

    German headlights

    I decided to expand the range a bit. For starters, headlights for German vehicles are available. In a few days, a Notek with one LED will also be available (now there is only a version with two LEDs). If there will be interest in such things, more 1/6 scale accessories will be added...

    Has anyone bought a vehicle from Solo 3D Studio?

    There is 1/10 scale Sd.kfz 234/1 somewhere on the Cults3D. This is certainly more suitable for upscaling to 1/6. But if you dont have a printer, you would have to find someone (preferably in your area) to print it for you.

    Has anyone bought a vehicle from Solo 3D Studio?

    This is maded with the 3D model from Zenislew.I know him. Zenislew makes 1/32 scale 3D models with details adequate for that scale. Of course, when you enlarge 1/32 to 1/6, it wont be ideal. The seller is not even the author of that animation. https://cults3d.com/en/search?q=zenislew...

    Cromwell - 3D printed RC model by Warprints

    Thank you. Yes, it works like a normal leaf spring. It needs to be printed with PET(G) material without any fan (cooling) to have a correct properties. I have two versions - softer and harder, but in general, i use soft one everywhere. I dont have a better picture of that springs...

    3D printed RC Hetzer

    Thank you. 2mm (5/64 ″) I used hard steel for the first few kits but now i use TIG ALSI5 aluminium rods which are intended for welding. They are much easier to bend and i use these for the track pins as well. They are strong enough, easier to cut and lightweight.

    3D printed RC Hetzer

    There are 4 types/sizes of these handles on Hetzer. Two on hatches and two on the sides of the vehicle. They can be printed, but they are not nice when printed, so i make these from wire. So its a hand-made part. I dont know about any source of these and i doubt about existence of some...

    3D printed RC Hetzer

    Thank you very much, SteveKrieg. Trying to do my best and still improving my skills. Yes, i can do it without mechanic parts. There are "dummy" bearings and other parts (dummy servo for MG, for the example) for this purpose and internals removed in the static kit version. And the static...
