As per OXCC our tank drivers and gunners must be protected at all times. This is from paintball fire. The driver and the front passenger are very protected. Our main canon operator is not protected. So we are constructing a temporary box made of plastic tubing and pet netting. This will be placed right behind our turret. Will post pictures after its finished.

I finished the final design on our halftrack turret. I really like this last one we put together. It really strong and more streamed line. I think we will keep this design. Just need to securely strap in or canon.

I posted this link to ScaledTanks this morning and wanted to put it here, too. It is a little-known (to me) small half-track that could inspire a build. www.milweb.net/features/jeep.php

keep a rubber mallet in the tank in case it fails to seal. you wack it from the back and its a good fix in a jam

I will do that. Thanks for the tip. How about your tracks, will you get them installed for ION 2014 ? i would but i need alot more than tracks. i have to fabricate a whole new chassis and buy a new drivetrain. the t 20 trans is about $1500 at least and the motor i want is at least 2 k. so the tracked chassis will cost about 5k i imagine. If i spend that i might as well build a panther lol.I will probably wind up upgrading the panzer 4 first. Its the perfec tsize to fit on my trailer
