I definitely will do that, we used the tank to go out sledding yesterday, we had 6 people in the tank and it plowed uphill in 8 inches of snow without any issues. We shuttled people around in the snow all day, alot of fun.

We will have it out tomorrow to see how well it does ? I have a suspicious feeling we won't be disappointed. Unfortunately I think they aren't letting anymore tanks in for Stalingrad. We won't be rushing now, but I will keep y'all posted

Alright gents, finally started on phase two which we finished in one day!!! Build the entire frame out of 1/2 rebar which we welded in place. The entire thing is removable and lightweight yet impressively strong.

Here are the pics of the beginnings of the cannon build. As you can see the sprinkler valve, gate breech load valve and the fire extinguisher (expansion chamber) are not yet installed. I have to go purchase them. The majority of the assembly is made from 3/4 inch black steel which I will be coating n an enamel to prevent rust. I am going to start working on the rifled barrel this week. Specs: Type: Breech Load Barrel Length: 5ft Rifled Operating System: Compressed Air MAX PSI: 150 Safety Valve: Yes Expansion Chamber: Fire Extinguisher Firing Mechanism:Mechanical Trigger Regulator: Yes Direct Fill Station: Yes This cannon is for the main gun and it is coming along really nice. I should be able to get an excellent rate of fire from this design! Any suggestions let me know.
