Afternoon all,

I recently ordered a kettenkrad from shop.xion, I've been looking for one for a while but they are as rare as hens teeth so I had to buy new. It turned up on Saturday morning and I've got the majority of it completed. I also liked the trailer they had for it but at almost £50 it was a bit expensive just to tow around, so I decided to make one, the styrene and wheels cost me £4 so there was quite a saving, I've got a little bit of filling to do now and then looking forward to getting some paint on them. I'm hoping in the future to upgrade the motor and electronics with the help of Eddyk,

Cheers, Lee.

what a superb job ! ingenuity indeed ! are they spare sprues converted into a frame ?

Great job Lee - clever chap

Hi doc,

Yes they are , most of the parts were sourced from my spares box even the main trailer box, it was once filled with forest scatter that I use for my 1/35 dioramas, the only things I bought was a pack of 2mm styrene rods for the side frames and the wheels which cost me £ 2 for 4 of them, thanks for looking in, i appreciate you comments,

Cheers Lee.

Cheers Adam,

Lee

Great job, Lee! Congratulations for getting a Kettenkrad for yourself!

Thanks Edmunds, I'm sure I'll be picking your brains when I get further along with it, I hope to get the motor and electronics upgraded

Thanks for your comments, Lee.

Is there any news about this build?

Hi Eddy, not a lot done lately to be honest , I've finished making the trailer and primed it but I havnt painted the krad or trailer yet though , hopefully get some projects finished over the next couple of months

Cheers, Lee.
