hello, ive purchased a not too bad condision relic tellermine 43, i am going to restore it put the problem is it missing its fuze which is a wide flat piece that sits on top faceing up on the mine, theres not much hope of get a fuze for it put i can get my hands on a tellermine 35 fuze, both mines are very identicle in shape and size could i use a 35 fuze in the 43, do any one have both mines in there colection to find out?

thanks

Re: tellermine restoration
The tellermine 35 uses the T.Mi.Z.35 as the main Igniter my I ask if you have the tellermine 35 or tellermine 35 steel ? The steel is distinguished by radial fluting on the upper surface as a igniter
Similar to that used in the tellermine 42 was used or it can use a T.Mi Z35 pattern Igniter .The tellermine 43 uses T.Mi .Z. 42 as an Igniter

Re: tellermine restoration
We don't use Tellermine in our group, wouldn't be nice to use against yanks or brits. Instead we fabricated some 30 "Tefal-mine44"
CDB taking it way too serious!
Re: tellermine restoration
Very clever simulated mines!
Those would be great for our unit because our opposing Allied armor actually could drive over it without a huge replacement cost.
They appear to be a serving bowl of some sort. What are the dimensions and do you recall the brand?

Re: tellermine restoration
Judging by the name 'Tefal-mine44', I'd guess it is infact a large frying pan, with its handle removed :p Pretty smart, and looks the part.

Re: tellermine restoration
Forum member Boshman makes some lovely MDF Teller mines armed with maroons that go off if you move them or step on them. He also makes wooden Schu-mines armed with some form of blank caps. We've used them to great effect at AGS events.

Re: tellermine restoration
If they weren't 'non-stick' could you use them on tanks?
