Just read of some post-war reconstruction by the Soviets at Kummersdorf proving ground. There's a picture of an entire metal roof-frame on a warehouse being built from Panzerfaust tubes welded together as there were so many lying around.
Also some intriguing stuff on very late war fragmentation bomb trials for the Panzerfaust-heavy Volksturm, concrete & wooden heads etc.

Strange that the Nazi regime did not think to mobilise women for the war effort except those who accounted for their share of dirty work in the the hell hole of Ravensbrueck and suchlike.

When all was lost,German woman were to be thrown into the front line.

Hitler liked his woman of the Third Reich to know their place and even reduced their domestic toil by the use of female forced labour in the home

Some interesting figures on 'faust production here:

"over 7.4 million in army use"
Quite a high level of failure/rejection too if the figures are right.

A great night shot of a Soviet soldier firing a Panzerfaust.
