Wheels assembled, mounted. Tracks and sprockets dry fitted.
Here's the question. When was the last time you saw bandies that were too long.?
Later.

Don't worry Jeff, when you add the sag they'll look bloody good  . Nice colour too

I've seen it more than a few times myself. Still, when you glue them down to the return rollers, you'll have a great sag.
By the way, I've had the best results with gluing those bandies by using Testor's red tube glue.

Sag seems to be the way to go by the sound of it Jeffers. Nice work so far too!

A bit more done.
Progress on the upper hull.

And the Gun assembled and installed.

That's it for now. Got to get the tracks painted and sagged next.

Most kind, Boys. 
Got the tracks based out and detailed this morning and installed this afternoon.
Suitably Saggy I think. Upper hull is dry fitted at the moment.

They need a little touch here and there.
Later.
