I was wondering if anyone knows of better pictures or plans for the rounded stowage bins that were installed in the very early Tigers. I will begin building one pretty soon and would like to add something different to it.



Thanks,

Ray

I don't have my new MMiR Tiger book here at work with me to check, but I am almost certain that it contains what you are looking for. Excellent book.

MMiR TIGER I/II has all those details and much more. If you are contemplating building a Tiger, you must get this book!

As I seem to remember, the VERY Early Tigers had No storage boxes and the one you see in that pic was an add on in the field and pretty much just on that one Tiger. Many Early Tigers used Panzer III stowage boxes. You might have better luck with that.
