Speaking of long winded posts, I typed one up 3 days ago but must've forgotten to hit "post".

Not much to report, but this one is officially back underway. I've been going through my parts and drawings, trying to remember what I had planned for my scratch built tracks and seem to be back up to speed, I've done a couple of links, to decide which size lasercut bolts to use, I've decided on the 1.2mm.

I haven't figured out how I'm going to attach the links yet, but I think I'll come up with something similar to what's shown in the picture Greg provided. I'm thinking I'll also go all the way for the sake of extra detail and connect them with wire rods etc, instead of using a paper strap as originally planned.

I found some old photos on the sd card in my phone, they've survived 3 phone upgrades over the last 5 years. We have a dozer similar to this where I work, I took some photos of it to use as a guide to apply some weathering to a model I never built. Not sure if the dozer is still there, but if it is I'm going to get some more pics. These will come in handy, I'm sure.
