4x scratchbuilt T-92 & T-93 US SPG tanks (monsters)


  • With interchangeable barrels (200mm extra-extra-long & 240mm barrels).
    I lost count at 100 parts per unit, all but the treads (Pershings had to die to make these) are made from paper, cardboard, balsa wood, brass rods, brass & aluminum tubing, heated & stretched plastic sprue, thread, etc.
    2-part Ammunition has not been added yet, but will be put in yet.
    –------
    Front hatches: Brass rings, filled with putty, and edged with 3 layers of glue (to make beveled lip around hatch), brass hinges.
    Spade: Plastic pen body, brass rods, and paper frame.
    Gun: Aluminum tubing for main barrel sections, with brass and rolled paper parts.
    Rear hull sides: Paper and cacrdboard, saturated in super glue (rock hard).
    Hull: Balsa
    Gun lock: Square brass tubing with brass rod inside, brass wire, and paper.
    Flooring: triple-layered cardboard, paper, and plastic sheet.



  • Here they are with thier 60lb powder charges, and projectiles (6x that weight).


  • I have no idea who you can make these but you definatly get the John McGyver award for turning simple items into works of art…


  • Thanks. I have been called McGyver in a coupl eother sites I posted these on now. For this to be compared to McGyver, they would need to be able to fire whole cabbages at the bad guys and knock them out  … oh wait, that was the A-team.
    Thanks!
