the post reads, 24 hours per build, x 4 plus set up, that is just under a week, yes that is what you asked.

I should have taken a picture of the case of empty Propel bottles I drank building these.

4x24=96 hours. Now that's what I call some overtime. Atleast you can't get fired for them bottles on this job. They look great.

No, the teeth may be smaller, but there are more teeth contacting each other, than say a 48 pitch.

Bender runs 64 pitch on his crawlers with great results. I used 64p because I wanted to keep them as quite as possible to not scare away drivers that have no idea what there listening to.

He paid $5000 per crawler, but I will build you one for the low price of $2000.

[BrandO]

Wow! I will take 5 at that price. What a bargain. Nice rigs Badger.

Those bodies look terrible! Who the hell helped you pick out those colors anyways?! HAHA! Looks great man. BTW, your Geolander tires should be in the shop this Friday if not then they should already be there.

Thanks for the tips on the bodies. It was alot of work but I think they turned out ok. I cut the bodies using the exacto blade which seemed to be much faster then using body scissors.

Give me a call when you get the Geos in and I will swing by to get them.
