Hi all

Does anyone know if anyone makes 1/48 oxygen-acetylene bottles or enginnering related accessories? I've got an idea for a Royal Engineers dio in 1944 with a bit of a twist but I need some tools etc otherwise it won't work properly.

Any help will be useful
Regards
Matt

You could also check a Model RailRoad Hobby Shop . 1/48 is a popular scale ( 1/45 - 1/48 is O scale ) and there should be lots of AM detail parts avalible either in store or by order through the Walthers catlogue .

I was going to suggest the same thing. O gauge in the US is 1/48, as opposed to 1/43 (?) in the UK.

Here's an example from Walther's online catalog:

I think some of the Verlinden sets have the stuff you're looking for. Also the CMK Kubelwagen workshop, maybe Tamiya German field maintenance set?
