Thanks for the good words, things are moving along nicely and I have hopes of finishing the tank before leaving for Spain. here are the sprocket and idler covers

Thankfully the design work went quite well and I only had to do a couple of reprints to get it right
Next comes the exhaust and side vents and finish off the front of the upper hull.
