Quite a slowish process to make these, but they need to be quite exacting.

The drive motors are from a Komatsu skid steer loader with a two speed function.

They are a really good fit and should be really simple to drive. Perhaps someone could tell me why they are al sideways.

Are you taking the pictures with an I-phone or I-pad ? If so I understand that they use a different system to define which way up photos should be and the forum can't read it. You are not the only one to have this problem.
Great progress on the tanks and it's good to hear from you again.

Easy fix for posting from an IPhone of IPad. Change the rotation of the picture, save it then change it so it shows the proper orientation on your device and then save the edit again. It will now post in the proper orientation on the forum.

Found these pictures in a Facebook post.

Posted by Rob Stout
2nd Fife & Forfar Yeomanry MkVIB tanks in Bessbrook, Northern Ireland, on 25 March 1941, shortly before they moved to Yorkshire to join the 11th Armoured Div on the 7th June. They were the Divisional Cavalry for the 53rd (Welsh) Division which at that time included the 159th Infantry Brigade who would follow them to the 11th AD in June 1942 to replace the 30th Armoured Brigade.
