Armortek

Thanks for sharing your fine work with us Martin.

Thanks Robert,
the next are the much holders for the tools, tracks and head light.

Here a small update. So many holders and tools..............

It is with great pleasure that I follow your beautiful build Martin.
One question: Did you make the Fire Extinguisher Tetra and the bracket yourself?

Robert

Hi Robert,
as already written in the mail: thanks for the nice words.
Here comes the next step: priming the mud guards, test fit of the final drive housing and begin to mount the casted drive wheels with the steel sprocket rings. The new challenge is to find a mount that works without a taper lock bush.

After making a drawing for the flange to hold the sprocket wheel, i tested the design - very good so far.
There are also some modifications on the final drive housings.

Awsome build. Perfect model.

Well done Martin

Hi Florian and Robert,
thank you so much for the nice words.
Here come a very small update from the Loctited ball bearings onto the shaft and the modified final drive housings.

After a very long time, the time has finally come with a new update.
The final drive housing got a small laser cutted sheet inside the housing, because there was a gap so you could see the gear from the out side.
Now it is closed and no dirt can get in.

Very interesting modifications and details. Looking really good.
Best regards
Bob

I did more or less the same thing to my P1V before it went to a better owner who could handle the weight.
(see gearbox modification in P1V section)
The whole model was made to Armortek plans and I really enjoyed making it.
Graham

Hope to see this masterpiece soon.
Well done Martin.

Hi Bob, Graham and Robert,
thanks for the nice words. Here are the next level of details from the bump stops. Ordered brass plates from a laser cutter, milled the origin bump stops from Armortek and soldered pins into the plates. After this i glued the plates into the holes on the sides. Make some welding seams and glued on a fake screw for the rubber - will follow after painting.

Master at work...
