Hi,

Very nice to see an interesting prototype being modelled. :thumb

What made you settle on this track machine?

Have you got plans to motorise it?

Cheers,

Richard

A very smart piece of CAD work. Fantastic modelling.

Did you 3d print the hoses and handrails or were they added conventionally afterwards?

Best,
Paul

Hi Dave,

Very nice to see the model complete. I am sorely tempted by one of these vehicles when the current Mostyn priorities are dealt with.

How did you eventually motorise it (if you did)?

Cheers,

Richard

Hi
I used the highlevel pacer unit to power it
