does rotomolding have any advantages? Why not just use GRP? Seems like its extra effort for similar results. Chris. b i don't really see any benefits to using a rotocast for any of the parts of the tank. tanks parts such as the turret and body just wouldn't cut it with the rotocast, you'd be better off making egg shells with it when it comes to this sport/hobby. items just as engine grill vents, mufflers, road wheels, turret hatches and the likes can be cast in a tough resin such as Task 3 and will hold up just fine. for the hulls and turrets, make them out of fiberglass, metal plating, heavy vacuum form plastic or (the standard) wood, just don't waste your time and money on the rotocast Chris, _Odyssey Slipways_ (http://hometown.aol.com/odysseyslipways/index.html) **************Make your life easier with all your friends, email, and favorite sites in one place.
