Phil 9 Posted November 15, 2013 Share Posted November 15, 2013 the only 1/5 scale Spandau gun kit I can find is from Arizona models and they cost a fortune does anyone have any good scale drawings I could use as reference to build my own. I will probably only be able to produce a simple representation of the gun but at least I would like it to be the correct size many thanks Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil 9 Posted November 15, 2013 Author Share Posted November 15, 2013 I found a reference stating the length of the full size was about 1175mm I guess I can make a reasonable estimate from that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many thanks it does not show up well on the preview so I had dismissed it when I first looked there. But if you down load it properly it is very clear and detailed.

Phil 9 Posted November 19, 2013 Author Share Posted November 19, 2013 well Decembers issue of flying scale models magazine has some very good 1/10 drawings of the lewis Vickers and Spandau guns Now that was lucky the build article also mentions you can buy brass etched copper to make the whole ridden cooling jacket of the Spandau. Does anyone have a clue as to where you can buy it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
