Thank you. I am planning on printing as much as possible. I am trying to design extra strength into the load bearing areas of the chassis and moving components. Hopefully it works out well, but there is always the option of making some things from metal if needed.

Yes. I have done some test prints of tracks already to test the clevis pin links that I intend to use, and they seem to work ok.
