My post was about Scalawag's sprocket and road wheel additions. I figure that he will get around to doing the cut outs on the sprockets as well. That's all I was referring to. ;o)

:thumbup: Look better in metal sprockets then the plastic ones and I'll bet they haven't weakened the sprocket which many were worried about.
Will really add a lot to the look of your build :clap: .

I was pretty sure they wouldn't heat up like regular steel. The alloy the use probably has no steel in it at all. More like zinc alloys, fairly strong but brittle like the old cap guns I played with as a kid.

Mighty fine Paul - the ice box and water is a nice touch.

Must move my Leo build up a gear to compete with you in the desert :)

AWESOME!!!!!! Great work on the sprockets! I just received a notice from the post office that my replacement sprockets from Tank Army have arrived. :D I have only time to get it on 30th though ahehe.... I hope the ketchup bottles have also arrived but I doubt it (mail from HK seem to take forever to arrive).
