Jeff, I have to admit to not bothering to thin the armour plates, for the reasons that Tat states, bolt detail on one side, hangers on the other, and they're positioned so close to the edge that even just thinning the very edges wasn't feasible. Looks like you did a good job though.
The tracks - on mine I don't recall them being too tight, but they were pretty stiff. Key is to make sure you get a good join on the sprock and idler and leave it to set overnight.
Don't forget also to drill out the exhaust mufflers, and if you want to really go for it, I think there's meant to be a cross piece of metal bar just inside the muffler to stop stuff going in (I drilled, but didn't do that!)
I did get the spare track link on upside down though - I think - in fact, never quite sure about it... here it is (since Tat showed his
)
Kimmo, the Protz, that's another I have half finished somewhere, with the tyres removed.
Anyway, to show I am still doing work on the Priest, here's some wheels with painted tyres...
...and most of the bodywork is together; in fact I think once the wheels are on and the gun is in, that is it for construction, then it's just paint:
Maybe the hairbrush will see some action tomorrow.
