wizardofflight Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 Excellent work. This is one of the first build I have seen done from these drawings. Can't wait to see this project progress. I am the author of these drawings. Both sets that have been post are the same drawings. I have no idea how or who posted them on the blueprint site, I wish they had asked first, oh well what's done is done. I also have done drawings for a number of other blasters, E-11, MG-42, MG-15/RT-97C and the Lewis gun as well as a few others. Most are posted over on the RPF, The Dented Helmet, and the Blasters Builders Club. If I can be of any help with the drawings please let me know. Quote

Thank you, I don't know who posted them as there is no names on the plans. I have found a couple of bits that need updating and when I have finished my build I could pass them on to you if you would like. Thanks for making the plans origanlly Quote

Thanks for making the plans origanlly Anything that you can send me would be great. These drawings were done totally from pictures and a few published dimensions. I have only seen a MG34 in person once, so there is a lot of room for improvement. Alan Quote

Handle fitted and a few more details added Quote
