Got my tank!!!

Okay so I got the base vehicle for the tank. Got to build it first of course.

This isnt mine, but its a pic so you know what it looks like. I have to take a few shots of mine in a day or two.



Mine is red. Kawasaki 3010 Trans 4x4. Cost a small fortune, but hey it will be fun. Big SOB.

Oh yeah! 4x4 and the long 4 seater frame will work nicely.

What are you planning to use for a main gun? Personally I haven't seen a better main gun that Brain's. It wasn't cheap, but definately worth the cash.

That is a nice platform! I looked at one of them, that is serious coin. I was hoping that Scott would finance this. That should make a real nice tank!

Well, to start with my main gun will be marker based. We use marker based A/T and Tank weaponry at my home field and then this will also be traveling to D-Day which is marker based.

I probally will procrastinate (sp) on the air cannon until I need it for a game. I am not sure on a design. I will have to check on how much space I have in the turret. If I have the room I will probally end up with an electronic valve converted to pneumatic opening.

One of the gentlemen over on WARPIG started using the metal bodies of the little disposable fire extinguishers for air chambers. They are rated for pressurized gas so it should be a bit safer than using PVC. Tap out the neck and use Black Steel for the componets. Add a regulator and then a blow off valve just incase the reg sticks open.
