M29/M29c Wewasel
Sometimes I think maybe I shouldn't post photos of some of my projects. This is one. The name of this forum is RC Universe/RC tanks. This Weasel project is not RC --- it isn't even crudely motorized. It was just a fun project that I thought could make use of the spare Mato Pz III track in my spare parts box. No kidding ---- I built this thing just so that I could use one half of a PZ III track set!Photos of a real M29 convinced me to do it. It was small, flat side, with not much interior. And by golly --- there was an amphibious version as well. Building a standard M29 that had removable M29c floatation pods had me hooked.
Now that it's built, I think I can still motorize it so that could be turned on and just run in a straight line into a pool of water, and then float across with the tracks rotating for propulsion, (good planning rex). . The details on this project were a bugger. I never realize what I have gotten myself into until I'm half way through a project. Here is what I have so far .... done except for paint.
