Road wheels. Except for the inner bevel pieces, build up was relatively simple.

Looks good with the road wheels on. I see that both you and Kevin have been engaged in road wheeling lately.

Thanks everyone for checking in. These road wheels were a piece of cake compared to what Kevin had to deal with.

The drive sprockets on the other hand...

These are not well done. The inner sprocket and first drum are fine. The wrap for the second drum is too long. This makes the outer sprocket attachment markings on the wrap useless.

The two halves of the outer sprocket are identical. This is wrong. When positioning the spokes the outer teeth are off. So surgery is required...

That drive sprocket look pretty complicated. Given all the troubles it gave you it and the other running gear look great. Good luck with the tracks - I hope for your sake they are made up of band construction instead of individual links.

Anxious to see more.

The tracks are indeed bands. They are not that complicated, just a lot of parts (guide plates and track pads) to cut out.
