I am making a new bottom view of engine and gearbox.

Hi could I ask please what you used to cover your seat pads? I am doing a refurbishment on a second hand half track and want to do something similar.
Thanks,
Mark

Hello Mark,

The basis seat pads I make from a balsa wood. I use the artificial leather imitation for the covers.It is very thin, only 0,5-0.6 mm. It is very flexible for bending. For the fixation I use contact adhesive glue in a spray.

Have a nice day.

Hi Bob,

Thank you for a very nice comment.

I just finished the engine and gearbox and I am starting the work about the exhaust.

Nice sunday for everybody.

Beautiful: a great job of detail!
it's a shame that everything then will hardly be visible ....
A curiosity: remain insufficient space to speakers and a part of the control electronics?
Good Sunday to all!

Hello Iacopo,

Thank you for your comment. You're right that most things not seen, but I have a good feeling that I have made them. It is only the bottom part of the engine and There is in the engine compartment too many of space.

The exhaust is ready. The pipe has a very complicated shape. All parts of the exhaust are made from a wood.

Some news. I finished the rear part of body and the main cocpit. Everything is painted. I started to prepare electrical installation. The main motors are working in the 24V system and the rest installation is in the 12V system.

I completely finished the cockpit and the instrument´s panel. All instruments are illuminated.
