That offhand comment now has me wondering whether these things were flame-cut, or if they used a guillotine at the time For some reason, flame-cutting feels very American to me.the exposed edges of the plates were finished with a very course grit sandpaper to give the flame cut look.
I can’t find it just now in my documentation, but I seem to recall they are indeed fuel tanks, and the thing on the outside is definitely a jack.Fitted these bits to either side of the main turret support structure. They look like some form of fuel or oil tank and have what appears to be a jack fitted to them.
Nice progress, this is quite a complex tank to build (I’ve got an unfinished ICM one sitting around) so not going overly fast probably isn’t only down to you taking your time
