Thanks Herman!
I've changed jobs and relocated overseas on a contract so the 1/10 I was working on has been left behind for another year!
Based on what I learnt from the first build, I'm going to start again but this time in 1/8 scale and work from the inside out (rather than the shell first) so I can sort out the engine/gearbox alignment and suspension.
I'm also looking at making the torsion bars using resin moulds or 3D-printed PLA.
I still haven't found a good way to make the tracks yet.
But anyway, I'm going to crack on and if I ever get time, I'll drop by the forum with an update.
Cheers,
Oz
