OK, I have had it with the plastic rear mud flap fenders on my Tiger 1. I have just finished installing some brass mud flap fenders that I made for it. I will take pictures as soon as I find the camera. At least these will not break off as easily as the Tamyia ones have. Pictures soon I hope.

Found the camera! Here are a couple of pictures without any paint. I haven't had time to do that yet.

They look heavy duty Herman. You always do very nice work. I'm anxious to see how well the do during the Extravaganza, Most of us break them off backing-up into the boulders and buildings during hastey retreats or dodging in-coming rounds. I'm sure your Tiger 1 will be the only one at the end of the day with two mud-flaps.[8D]

Beautifully done sir! Mine are long gone. My poor Tiger is naked in the rear...

Join the club....It has a very broad member base.

We will have to see how well they hold up at Danville at the end of the month. If the demand is there, I could make more of them for deserving Tigers that are running around "nekkid" in the rear!

Very Nice

I think you should make another pair and take some pics while constructing them. You could always use the second pair as a gift to another tanker or trading material. Anyway good job. I would really like to see how you made them as both my Tiger I and KT need new ones.

Thanks for sharing.

I can do that. They were made from materials I already had on hand. I will post pictures of the build process when I get them done.

Nice job, they should hold up very good.

Here are some construction pictures of how I made the fenders. I will have this set available at Danville at the end of the month if anyone is interested. The small brads are what I used to attach them to the hull. I marked the holes in the mounting plate on the hull, drilled them out, then soldered the brads to the plate. I used epoxy to glue them through the holes in the hull and on the back side of the plate.

I am interested for a set for my Tiger They look great.

Green Amphibian

Jim, you got them.

Tuffel Hunden,

Here is a picture of the completed set. They need to be cleaned up some more and primer painted. Hope they meet your expectations.

G Amp,
Great build pics, They look easy enough to make, I'll just have to try them myself. Thanks for sharing. Wish I could make it to danville with you guys.

Nice work Green A. This is a nagging problem with the Tiger 1. Thanks for posting.
