Trying to get started on my tank. Found an aluminum extrusion at the scrap yard that I can cut a "T" section out of. Its .090 thick and 2.4 inches wide. I cut up a bunch of track sections with a .625 tall tracking guide. They will get pop rivited to the 3.5 inch wide X .25 thick X 1 inch, PVC treads. Still looking for a treadmill belt.

Still trying to design a suspension system. I see a lot of tanks on this site with No suspension. How valuable is suspension??? You guys have a GREAT site here, a lot of good pictures & info!!
