Progress.
Lower hull based out, roadwheels and idlers installed.
I also started messing around with the new-ish,super duper,easy to use, latest and greatist NEO tracks. Let's just say it didn't go well.

The wheels look good . But those tracks look a tad annoying . What happened to them Jeff?

Thanks,Boys.
And yes,Bert. The wheels went well
On to the tracks.
The basic problem with the tracks is that the plastic is just too stiff,with a very strong memory and does not bend for f#ck all or hold the bend if you do manage to bend it at all without breaking it.
Here's the "jig"
The upper run is supposed to be bent to conform to this shape.
It will not. It breaks.
The lower run.
Even slow,light pressure and the track breaks.
I tried warming up the tracks in my hands and it seemed to help. So I warmed up some water. The minute I dunked them,I got this. It's bent NOW.....
There's more to the story but My Brain hurts.
