Here you can see the eccentric track tensioner.
Note, I'm using the word "eccentric" as an engineering term. Not because I think it's a bit strange!

The steel tracks are painful to handle. Every time i pick them up they bite my fingers. I think the full size items would amputate fingers very easily!

It's a cool design. Clark had proposed doing this years ago, but nothing ever materialized.

Another awesome build with supper detail. From your great detail photos, now finally get how they steered and track tensioned all in the same area.
Bet the tracks will make a wonderful ‘noise’ when they run at speed !

Ive been working on the track guards which also double as trays to carry the tracks when the tank is driving on its road wheels.
Also been hammering and bullying the front mudguards in to shape.
