Great job! And an itty bitty teeny weeny subject. It looks like it took three months to build, its that good.

I'm from the government and I'm here to help.

Chris it looks great!
I have to laugh at the memory of Sue (my wife) begging a ride on the real deal and the smile on her face that quickly turned to a "This thing rides like ---!" Look as she bumped along in the 'back seat'.. This look turned to a "get me off of this!" as the ride continued. Luckily, she laughed the whole way and smiled as her ride finished. I think she'll stick to bigger half tracks and tanks!

Now, I have to get this straight, Chris, you're recommending this as 'kit of the year'? (since that's how long it takes to make one)

You certainly built it as if it was the easiest thing to do! Great work Chris! I know how you feel; my Scammel gave me the same kind of hard time! You kettenkrad certainly came out better though! Can't wait to see the better model you're going to build next!

Thanks for the compliments. Makes all the problems worth it.

Ron- Yes this is definalty my vote for kit of the year most likely to be slammed against a wall for sure!

Cassibill- Bad thing is I did the Dragon Wagon in less than 3 weeks. Of coarse this one did get put into time out a few times for not cooperating like I thought it should.Big Smile [:D]

Hmm maybe that's one of those modeling equations the size of the kit is inversely proportional to the length of completion.
