by Didn’t work too much on the model yesterday as we went downstate to enjoy some time on Tim’s farm. I had the chance to drive some of the farm equipment though and even got Deb up there with me! I posted videos and photos on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/doncampbellmaker/) and Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/doncampbellmaker) if you’d like to check them out!

In my YouTube video today, I show the general shape of the hood and the cab and how they will go together. These pieces will be most noticeable so the shape and fit of these pieces are very important. At this point, much of the structure is just roughed in as it takes some guesswork to get it all to come together so I need to leave some flexibility to tweak things if necessary. I estimate I’ll make about 150 pieces so these first 6 are just the very beginning.

I will use the conveyor chain to attach trackpads to the little tabs shown. Each one needs an individual pad made so that ends up being quite time-consuming. I’m going to try something a little different with the chain and sprocket this time but I’ll talk about that a bit more once I get all the pieces I need.
Thanks for following! If you missed the previous two posts, you can find them below. If you’re also looking to where else you can find me, I’ve also included some quick links below as well.
