Basic Dimensions

Tiger1's basic dimensions are very hard to find and many sources give contradictory information.
Here are my own findings, which I think should reasonably match the original German design.

These are the dimensions I am using on my model. Other sources deviate from these dimensions and you should be careful when mixing them. It may lead to unexpected results. Don't hesitate to contact me in case of doubt. Errors in this stage of a model are almost impossible to correct later.

There is a difference in the position of the early and late cupola.
The early one has the position shown in my drawings: 540 x 420 mm (source: www.tiger1.info), while the late one is positioned at 510 x 400 mm
