Quote from: zenrat on May 22, 2023, 04:58:04 AMWell it won't exactly be a six in a Kettenkrad.  More a motorcycle/tank built around the engine.  V8 might be easier as it's a shorter engine.  But why choose the easy option.
Ahhhh so a Edd Roth inspired sort of build..thinking along those lines then hell yes .. cool and weird 😎 🙃 😅
A KettenRodKrad  :wacko:
If it aint broke ,,fix it until it is .
Over kill is often very understated .
I know the voices in my head ain't real but they do come up with some great ideas.
Theres few of lifes problems that can't be solved with the proper application of a high explosive projectile .

Could you use the running gear from the re-released Rommel's Rod? Or would it be a tad too big?
And then you could convert the Rod to all wheeled...

Just trying to think of ways to make life easier for you, Fred - honest!  ;)

Traks R Us.  ;D
Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Thats the ticket.. then only needs touch ups.

This is the time to slavishly follow the instructions on which bit goes where as a difference of one link on a track piece on the wrong end can change the entire way the track run fits.

Ask me how I know  :banghead:

I did that on the Tamiya 1/48 SU-122 and the tracks ended up too big.  Had to move the wheels outwards.

Link & Length tracks so I can't take the credit for that.
Top run needs to be pushed down onto the front idler more.

Lucky Buzzo posted his comment about slavishly following the destructions as I was about to go my own way when I noticed Tamiya had specified the order to attach the track parts...
