Walmart has Dritz brand Super-Fine sharp pins. A lot smaller dia. than your normal straight pins. Tony lee  Marc , i didnt know about the above pins that Tony used , mine were to large in diameter and i had to drill out each link . Try what Tony suggested . I am the next time i get to the big city where Wals is .Mine were an Inch long by the way . ;D |

Looks real good, Carl. One could say that the frontal armor of the Jagdtiger was more or less its chastity belt...  |

I reworked the tow shackles that came with the kit . I drilled a hole in one side of the shackle and then made the pin from 3/64th styrene rod .  |

Carl check the depth of the barrel at the end of the manlet with that photo you posted.
From the pictures i've seen the start of the barrel bevel from the breech end should be even with the
outside edge of the manlet collar.
Most of the after market barrels were measured using the APG JT and it is jammed back from a shell hit.
I had to use a spacer in there so the barrel stuck out more on mine.
