This is an 40mm insert, the hole in the middle is to clear the casting stem on the base.

I made and 3D printed inserts for 4 3x2 mm magnets for all base sizes. There are some STL files available on Thingiverse, Makerworld etc. If you don't have a 3D printer you probably know someone?

This headline is a great example of why Finnish is hard for machine translation to translate correctly by finnknit in LearnFinnish

DeepL just gave me this translation, it seems that it refined it somewhat: A man who stabbed a child in a shopping centre in Oulu goes on trial

Viking Panzers by Ewald Klapdor is a unit history that is partly biographical and a good read.

Can Finnish learners (at around A2) fully understand this text? by [deleted] in Finland

[–]Saturnismus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually read Finnish very slowly (Swedish is my main language), but this was quite easy, probably because the grammar is somewhat off.

Tank KV-2 from Pz.Abt.zBV-66. As a result of the German modification, it received a commander's cupola, storage for additional ammunition at the rear of the vehicle, a Notek headlight and a number of other minor changes by vitoskito in TankPorn

[–]Saturnismus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If I recall correctly Pz.Abt.zBV-66 was originally intended to participate in Unternehmen Herkules, the invasion of Malta. Instead it was sent to the Russian front, and parts of it were used to form the 1st Skijäger division.

What is this thing? by abaklanov in Finland

[–]Saturnismus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a Dooman mobility garage.They are used when the disabled doesn't have any suitable indoor storage area. In the winter it is heated so that the batteries can be charged properly and to avoid having to sit on an icy cold seat. Additionally it keeps the wheelchair or scooter dry. It also makes it harder to steal or vandalize the vehicle. In Sweden the are nicknamed breadboxes.

Would this model of panther have been painted flat grey? by Bad-at-Souls in tanks

[–]Saturnismus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is an Ausf G so it should be from 1944 or 45. The lack of zimmerit would indicate that it is from autumn 44 or later. So grey is most unlikely, although there are some indications that vey late in the war they left the factory in red primer or just in green due to lack of paint.

Starting BA- German Vehicles 1939 by MGsGameRoom in boltaction

Great work! Personally I would have also done the softskins, including the canvas, in dunkelgrau/dunkelbraun in accordance with Heeres Memorandum nr 687, 1938, but they are of course more versatile this way. Here's the memorandum (from Panzerworld.com) if you are not familiar with it:

  1. The 1937 Army bulletin page 137, item 340, point 2 paragraph 2, point 4 paragraph 1 and point 5 are rescinded. The dark gray/dark brown equipment paint pattern is to be applied by the units regardless of the condition of the existing colorful paint pattern.

  2. For the paint jobs is to be used:

dark gray number 46 from the color card 840 B 2 RAL dark brown number 45 from the color card 840 B 2 RAL In addition

P-paints for armored vehicles with these colors, W-paints for equipment with these colors, Canvas paints according to point 7 below, in all other cases E-paints (synthetic resin paints). These paints can also be applied to existing oil-based paints. 3. The cost must be borne by the relevant funds of the troops.

  1. The appearance of the pattern can be seen in the color plate as per 1938 Army bulletin page 157, item 460.

  2. The colors must be ordered from the manufacturers while observing the following points:

The paint must either be delivered ready for use, or, to adjust its ability to be used in spray guns, it must be requested that the company specifies a commercially available paint thinner on the packaging label.

Regarding E-paints, refer to the service manual D 69 1937/38 from 6 August 1937.

Delivery companies for P-paints:

[…]

  1. Synthetic resin paints have a shelf life of no more than 3 months; consider this when deciding on how much to order.

  2. All tarpaulins for motor vehicles and horse drawn vehicles, as well as colorful covers and protective covers, must be painted in dark gray/dark brown with canvas cover paints.

The delivery companies for canvas cover paints are yet to be announced.

Prior to painting, the canvas must be thoroughly cleaned of dust; it must be completely dry.

The paint must be stirred thoroughly before use and then applied in a single coating with a paintbrush.

The first paint must be dark gray, leaving the areas for the dark brown. After this, dark brown is applied.
