This took almost 8 months to complete, the track consists of over….I can’t remember, but it was lots. The track actually functions. Made from Ebony, Oak, Cedar, Pine, Purple Heart, Yellow Heart.

Awesome, I collect tank models, but this is the first I have seen in wood.
Great details.
Did work from a plan or design yourself??
What are the dimensions??

Thanks for the kind words. It was built from plans from Cherry Tree Plans. The tracks took the most time. Those pins on the tracks you see are brass nails. 100s of them

Ray,

This is fabulous and the details on this one are fantastic. I am sure that you don’t let the children play with this one.
