I purchaaed the guns a while ago. I WISH they would include some instructions on how to put them together, like they do on the backside of the boxes. Anyway, I wanted to make them portee so I bought the reinforced 3-ton trucks as they had an open flatbed (unlike the regular 3-ton trucks!). Is there anywhere i can printed instructions on how to build the 20mm portee AA guns? |

Shep Paine did this conversion (albeit on a Maultier) in his How to Built Armor Models book. Basically remove the little pads off of the 20mm FLAK and mount them on wooden blocks (I'd suggest sheet plastic) about the length of the span between the two rear feet, and for the front about half that span. In reality, these were not sophisticated mountings anyway… Damon. |
