    Yes these wheel constructions are VERY hard to do . You make it look easy. Wish I saw this first before building the wheels for the panther crane. Your cuts on your other sections and for the wheels are very well done and clean. Love the work you have done so far. GREAT JOB!:) Sky Seeker

    Crane - Panther X250

    Yes. That's why I'm tackling this model. It's outside of the normal Sci Fi mold and a little more down to earth. There are a LOT of little parts to this, but it's NOTHING in comparison to some of the tank models out there with over 10,000 pieces. I think I would lose my mind working on the...
