Finally got the tracks done
They look little too wide to my eye so I probably will cut about 10mm off of them.

How wide did you say they were? Maybe you should just give these ones to me and make yourself a new narrower set...Oh, I may need you to make just a few extras though to fit my Volvo....

They look great to me... Maybe your machine is set up to run on softer ground that's all...

The whole chassis and tracks coming together looks absolutely amazing. Keep up the great work and I'm anxiously awaiting the next update.

Really a nice build, What CAM program and what controler program(as mach3) do you use?
I have to get more time on my cnc and cam/cad, it´s wery inspiring to watch your builds.

How many small bolts are going to be needed in total? 2000+

While your tracks might not be prototypical, they look great on the suspension. Larger footprint will help when you get it in the dirt Your work is just amazing

Leave the track pads alone! Unless you want the narrow quarry look.
Great start!

Cheer's, Neil.

You can't change Ari's mind, he's a perfectionist!


Great job on the tracks, I have made some tracks too in my life and I know how long these little a**holes take time.

Oh and spend less time in forum and more in garage, everybody want to see new updates
