my bearings and springs order came through. installing them on the tank and printing the road wheels now that i know they all fit in the dummy wheel

further progress on the wheels
printed spring spacers



printed all 8 of the inner wheels


dry fitting and test

Nicely done

Brilliant

since i know where to get certain springs, bearings and other fittings, i would need to improve on the design even further.
also heres more shots with 1:16 scale figurines i printed as well

just a mini update on the tank. i've printed the rest of the road wheels and they fitted quite nicely. now i am going to design the driving sprocket and idler wheels while using a much more conventional ready made KT tensioner bar. saves the time rather than having to use hex keys to drive and eccentric screw forwards and backwards.

2 choices to go.... easy mode is using existing KT/T1 metal rod tensioner for the idler wheels orrrr..... this own designed tensioner utilising the tensioner access socket on the back lower plate

WOW seriously wow.

Sure would be great to have an update on this one Mr Gig
