    Monthly MOC: Raupenschlepper Ost —Christian Lindblad Rasmussen
   After a while without posting I have finally uploaded pictures of my model of a WWII German tracked tractor called Raupenschlepper Ost. Please visit (URL) let me know what you think.

     It's a nice one! I like the front headlights, it's a great idea to use the joy stick holders. Fredrik (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.military)

     (...) Thank you - after the pictures was taken I have modified the Krad (motorcycle) to have the same kind of lights - front and rear. Christian (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.military)
   
        Re: Monthly MOC: Raupenschlepper Ost —Larry Pieniazek
     (...) Very spiffy. I love how you got the track wheels to be 1/2 stud offset. This unit fits in anywhere from WW II to arctic/antarctic expiditions of the 50's/60s (in different colors, say Orange?) or even on US ski hills of the 1980s (if they (...)

     (...) Thanks. Unfortunately I couldn't figure out how to use any other kind of (smaller) wheels due to the triangular "guides" on the tracks. Also it cannot be made narrover. Christian (23 years ago, 3-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.military)

I can see how to make a tracked vehicle two studs narrower (but not necessarily with the 1/2 stud spaced bogie wheels) by using the 1x2 bricks with technic pegs instead of the 2x4 ones... or am I missing something there? I think your vehicle (...) (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.military)

     (...) You are absolutely right but the cab would then have to be raised to make room for the tracks beneath. It would then be much taller and that would make it an entirely different vihicle. (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.military)

   (...) Very nice MOC Christian. What I like about this and your other models is that they are very compact, but without sacrificing details. Especially like the windscreen and blackout headlights - Gary (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.military)

   (...) Thank you - I used think that I made small models but compact is a much nicer description. The blackout headlights is my favorite detail too. Christian (23 years ago, 4-Jan-02, to lugnet.build.military)
