This is a detailed German World War 2 Panzer IV Kugelblitz tank design drawing for 3D printing. Most details have been fixed, requiring no further polishing. The model renders at scale 1:1, except for print parts. You will need: Eight stainless steel axles for the differential, each 4mm in diameter and 10mm long. Sixteen stainless steel axles for the road axle, each 2.4mm in diameter and 20mm long. 0.6mm spring wire for suspension springs and tracks. A standard N20 motor for the turret and differential. Bearings: four 7x2.5mm pieces, sixteen 8x3mm pieces, and twelve 5x8x2.5mm pieces. One hundred nylon M2 screws. Adhesive: Araldite or 502. Before assembly, take a few minutes to review the video at https://youtu.be/fYNN_6zREaU. Note that parts were designed to be assembled in a specific order, so try solving the puzzle. A complete video will be posted on YouTube within a few days. My machine is currently not functioning. This model is available for free; printing it yourself will cost less than $100 USD. It shares a differential with the German early production Tiger 1, which will be released in about two weeks. The design work took a month to complete, but some areas require redesign, such as the motor mounting base. A universal mount base will be left intact for you to install any available motor. Updates to the differential and gearbox will apply to the late production Tiger 1 and King Tiger (Tiger II). Feel free to comment if you are interested in learning why certain components were designed a particular way and how to assemble them.
