Mike, yes I can take out a section and that will give me a 788mm swing and I know that will come in handy one day.
George, I am happy you have an interest in these tanks but I think the turrets will be a reasonable task on their own and I have started them and been doing a lot of research and homework for the fabrication side.
I have ordered my main turret section that is rolled and unfortunately It is beyond my workshop facilities. I do have a set of rollers but it won't do 12mm with the width I require but never the less, I have been working on the cupola's and they are a piece of work as well. They are constructed of a lot of angled pieces that are machined, grafted and jointed together. My mill is certainly getting a good workout with this project.
