Sherman hedgerow cutter WIP

Post by mediump » Sun May 07, 2006 7:39 pm

I wanted to show some progress I made on a hedgerow cutter I'm working on for a freind, HIDEOUS ONE.
This is his Sherman tank, when he saw SOD BUST'R he asked me if I could make one for his.

and to answer your ? RED... I used the same material as SOD BUST'R, (my sherman) aluminum angle peices cut to size and shape and glued on with JB weld ( an epoxy type adhesive that can be a little runny and takes overnite to cure) HDS ONE wants to do the painting and weathering himself (as you can see from his stuff he does very good work) so I'm done . I thought about adding more, but I like it the way it is, simple.
in fact I almost like it more than sod bust'r, being that I put a little more research into it, and made it more accurate.
