Hello Caleb (all) Over here in UK. Im still working on a lot of things, mainly my Tetrarch. its an odd little fella. I made the Idler wheels over Christmas with the aid of my schools laser printer, now working on drive wheels. I`ll take a few photos soon, I have my students working on the tracks every friday afternoon so that helps, all the simple mundane task`s i can give to them. Im hoping it will be ready for Spring. In my school I have around 15 kids (11-15 year olds) who love Friday tank building class, Very few kids get the opportunity or go to the trouble to make things with their hands these days, its nice to see a few at least that do. We now have 4 working tanks with 2 more nearing completion and an artillery turret, all firing NERF darts so our battles are are bigger than ever in the UK.
I haven't been using my new 3D printer much, I was thinking it would revolutionise tank building but it just hasn't. I cant be bothered to learn the software 8) . With no-one else in the UK showing interest in our wonderful hobby, Stockport Academy is the European extent. I have tried getting other schools interested but I think the problem is its too hard and too nerdy. Your right it has been very quiet on here, and I for one miss the chatter of tank talk we used to have. so I thought id go a bit mad. Have a nice day...
