got a lot done on the lower hull tonight the internals are a bit rough and ready but thay work just need to make the idlers and the return rollers

had a bit of a set back with the comet lower hull i got my measurements wrong so i have had to start again this time i have made my own suspension it has worked out well the only other change i have mase is to use tamiya gear boxs

It looks Awesome septon.If HL does not do one I may have too commision you.

it looks great. can you discuss your suspension system a bit? it looks like tamita suspension arms (tiger 1?), sections of tamiya torsion bar rails and twisted wire. Any guidance about the diameter of the wire, type of wire, material, number of twists, etc?

Hi Paul
Man that does look good already,
look forward to seeing it in the flesh , sorry about the pun!
In Feb.

hi kclank yes the arms and rails are tamiya from a kingtiger i will take one out tomorrow and post some pics of how i done them
tonight i have started the track gaurds so far so good

cool, thanks

Hi Paul Nice job a quick question what do you use for the bolt heads are they small bolts been trying to find some at a resonable price with no succsess not bothered if they are functional or just stuck on .


regards pete

hi pete i just used thin brass bar and filed them to roughey the right shape

i have done a little more work on the comet i have had to wait for my local model shop to get some parts for me and i have changed the return rollers as the ones i made were to big

I am watching this with great interest. Looks superb so far.

heres a little more

Staggering piece of work septon can't wait to see more.

Nick.
