Those parts just keep on coming.....Geeez Dog you putting us to shame but some damn fine work..... Don
crueby:The tracks can be a real bear. When I built my wooden excavator models I always started with the tracks. about 30 man-hours and 500 parts later I'd have a set of tracks. Then the rest of the build seemed like it was all downhill.For what it's worth, a few weeks ago I started researching the Phoenix Centiped steam truck/locomotive. I THINK that they built a prototype but I'm not real sure. The only reference that I have been able to find to the Centiped is an article in the January 7, 1922 "American Lumberman" magazine. I know that the Phoenix used a different track arrangement than the Lombard log hauler uses, but this shows a track that sets it apart from any other Phoenix log hauler.Your tracks are looking good, keep up the good work and remember that it's all downhill from here.Don
Those are looking great Chris. Obviously a lot of work goes into each one, but your seem to have the routine down now. Well done.Bill
They are looking good, Chris I really liked your proof of concept wooden sprocket... way easier than junking another piece of stock. Filed for future reference.Cheers, Joe
