My latest work is done! a base, a US GP 500lb AN-M64 A1 with detonators AN-M 101 A2. About 30 hours of work with hacksaw - Files - sandpaper. I've made some photos, because for the finished part is langweilig.Ich hope you like it. The next is a bottom of a UK bomb.
Greetings to all Harry

Looks very nice. Too bad you have to use a hacksaw.

Great job Harry A piece of true craftmanschip!


'Too bad you have to use a hacksaw.'
No, a good descission. When sawing by hand you keep control over what you are doing. Using machines are not allways the best solution.

The last cutaway realized...

 

[Fusse2004]

Good job! What tools do you take? Is the tail ring is not screwed on wrong? Harry

Hi FZG76, very nice cutaway model that learnt me a new thing; the radial locking pin that prevents the bushings assembly from being screwed out. Now one can see the great advantage of cutaway models!
I assume the inner bushing can be removed to accomodate larger diameter fuzes?

Hi Fusse2004, PZGR40

My friend uses like me hacksaw. He loves restoration and I love the cutaway.

I think that the inner bushing can be removed to accomodate larger diameter fuzes but there has to be a indevissable fuze to have an interest. It's for ANM 123 and 132 types.
