    Made a little jig to hold the gunhouse for boring the barrel holes to the correct diameter

    There is no overkill, only 'open fire' and 'i need to reload'

    @CURT - Hadnt planned on production, but I could. Cost would depend on a few factors, primarily wall thickness and material choice. PM me if you want to discuss.
    International shipping might make it more cost and time effective to find someone in your area offering 3d print services though.

    Thanks. If I need to get any I will get them from you as I know nobody here who can do this for me.

    You do great things with your 3D printer Nick, love seeing your work. These are fantastic. Have you done any WW I SMS 88's for your derf yet?

    My boys and I got to explore some of these in 1:1 scale on BB-59, this past weekend. Your model is spot on!

    Nick do you have the STL file for the jig you made. Looks like it would be a great help when drilling out the hole for the guns.
