Few more bits and pieces
Well, I keep whittling away at it bit by bit....
Here are some recent photos of my progress from this past weekend. I know it doesn't look like much but with everything else going on around the house It's about all I could manage to do. I have a long way to go before the June 30 deadline. - We'll just have to see how it goes - If I don't make it that's okay, I just don't want to throw it together and ruin what I've done so far. I have too much time invested to do that.
Little odds 'n ends....I put wooden handles on the shovel, axe, and bolt cutters. The cleaning rod and jack crank were made from the shafts of q-tip cotton swabs that were slit apart and unwound to a smaller diameter then painted to match. (the jack itself was finished up a few weeks ago)
I still have to add the hold-down straps to the tools before mounting them to the tank.
This picture shows the 3D texture of the track with the grouser bars glued in place... I'm almost half way done - just have the bottom side to go.
