Accidentally glued it. :headbang: :headbang: :headbang: Contacted Tamiya USA for replacement parts. They are sending Parts A 24 thru A35. They don’t have spare A23. They told me to contact them in 3 - 4 weeks. Going to try to save and salvage mine as best as I can. If not, I’ll contact them in a month.
The Tamiya USA guys are the best at customer service. Great folks. Glad you got it sorted out.

Haven’t been on the bench since I started the Pak40 - especially after I messed up on the shield assembly. Kinda got to me and felt it’s better for me to step away from the bench for a bit.

Tried cleaning up part A23, Damn thing snapped. Debonder made it weaker. Oh well… this one went in the Shelf of Doom. I’ll send in another request for Part A23 a month from now. Hopefully they’ll have spares.

That's a shame Tom - I hope you can get it sorted down the line.
