Fynsdad,
Your work looks better than a similar product from HL or Mato or Tamiya. You really know your stuff.

You mean there's more to look forward too :O ...that's awesome fynsdad! :D ...If it were mine... I'd put some Saunders markings on her and go out and tear up some turf :haha:

Got a stupid question for ya though.. what kind of glue do you use to cap off your driver sprockets and idlers...I generally use super glue...but they still pop off :thumbdown:

Thanks for sharing this beauty fynsdad :thumbup:

Boy that was fast :haha: ...thanks fysdad ... I had to google it... but now I can go look for that
