Paint and if you're wondering it is gray MACK gray to be exact.































I may have more by the end of the weekend but I have some yellow paint for anouther project to shoot before I can get back to work on this.

Thanks for looking.

Not a problem. I am going to put in some battery packs for reference and take some more pics just so people can see how much room is in this beast.

I have 16-18 hrs in it so far. The first 12hrs were just assembling the track pads, body and blade parts. 2-3 hrs in paint and 2-3 hrs in assembly so far. There are close to 600 holes to tap to put this together. I am making custom pins for the blade and cylinder mounts and hope to have some pics by the end of the week end.


Thanks to all for looking.

Travis

Here are some more pics.



















I made my pins for the cylinders and the blade mount out of clevis pins cut to length on the lathe then drilled the 2 holes with the rotery table. I then taped the holes and made the caps. This proved to be a challenge as the pins had ard spots in them and I broke 4 drill bits and 2 taps wasteing only one pin in the process.


Thanks for looking.

Travis

Metal work looks great!! From my own build I realize how much thought goes into all the bends!! And planning. Tracks look good and down to business!
