Looks fantastic Ari! This will look sweet beside your grader! How long does it take to machine a pad and link?

It takes about 25 minutes to make one link pair and pad I have only made two of them, and it just hit me that making the rest 100 pcs will take very long time

HAHA, It took hours to do the tracks on my Volvo and that was just a little tig welding and cutting and drilling. The end result of my effort works but doesn't look that scale. You may be there for what seems like forever but it will look perfect when it is finished. As a mechanic friend of my Dads always says "time, patients and perseverance"!
