Very nice work!! I like the small details you are adding. This looks to be a very big machine and that should make working on it a bit easier. Seems like tracks are always the toughest to make and also has the most pcs. I will be watching.

Thanks Modelman, trying to get a few details in this build but my stuff usually ends up looking a little "plain jane" because I run out of patience near the end of the build.Tracks can take a long time, even the simple ones on this...glad to be able to use old ones from the D11.

Building the top carrier roller mounts, just needed to mill off the material that wasn't wanted and you end up with what is left behind.(which is the only thing that matters when machining parts ) These turned out better than I thought they would, almost looks like the real deal...almost...lol
