Made some progress slow going, took two days to make this one, 3 more to make. Still have to resize one axle shaft, thinking about that one.

Thanks Ih

The tools that I have are: Metal cutting bench top bandsaw, bench top drill press, various sanders and a good set of files. I do have a rotary table 4" that I used to mill the od of the center section. First time I used a rotary table. The setup was a pain, but it worked in the end.

Made up another drive axle, still do not know what I will come up with for the input / output pinion covers. I need to make up the steering axles next.

Thanks for looking
