I just keep watching this over and over and over, trying to work my nerve up to try something like this- it si an INSANE LEVEL Of True Skill and Actual, OLD WORLD Craftsmanship. Well Done. PLEASE DO MORE !! YOU ARE AN INSPIRATION !!
Congratulations - what a masterful build! It´s impressive to see how you´ve embraced new technology and techniques without losing sight of the value of more traditional model making skills and materials.
Thanks a lot, and thanks for watching! I actually thought of doing the cab without working doors at first, but that would have been a bit dull. Glad I chose to have them working. 😊
Amazing workmanship! ... One design flaw I'd like to see rectified, and that is the way the Tilt is held or affixed in the box. Did Steyr actually install it that way? I have owned a few 1:1 VW T1 and T2 Pickup Trucks, both Sinka's and DoKa's and know the use of the side gates is the handiest feature of all. I would like to see the Tilt affixed to the bed and the back of the cab of the Steyr so the Tilt could stay in place even if the gates are all flopped down. I have bought a stock Tilt frame and made my own and both attach to the bed and the back of the cab. This is a niggling comment and please don't take it as a criticism, because I am in awe of attention to detail in bringing this rather obscure beast to life. I wish I had half your talent. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! The gear on the drill is the small plastic gear from a rear derailleur and the drive shaft gears are 14 or 15 teeth singel speed-gears. You can basically use all kinds of gears to get the speed and gearing you like.
Hi, I model all my 3D-parts from drawings and measurements I find on the internet. If I need to, I buy a 1/35 scale plastic model as well. I'm using FreeCad as CAD software.
Hallo, i'm fascinated!! I try to build my own RSO 1:10 - i know how much work it is to plan so many details. the chain looks perfekt. you gave me an incentive to continue with my model. maybe they could post some pictures. thank you
Hi there and thank you! Awesome that you are building a RSO, it's such a cool vehicle. Best of luck, and check out builtbywikander on IG for more pics!
Erik your RSO is fantastic! I like the use of wood for materials. I was skeptical of a wood cab, but you nailed it perfect. It looks great. Would you consider sell wheels and tracks? Super job, enjoyed your AMX as well, but RSO is a favorite of mine.
Hi, thank you! Yes, it's a quirky little machine. Haven't figured out a good strategi regarding selling anything yet, but we'll see. Thanks for watching!
удивительно гусеничный тягач в виде модели да ещё и в масштабе 1/6 практически невозможно встретить танки в любых количествах и масштабах, а тягачей практически нет
I'm watching this and thinking ok this is awesome but maybe i could 3d model some of those parts and print them. Then he sculpts the cab. Lol. Nice work.
Haha, thanks. 😊 And yes, a lot of the stuff I build by hand is probably printable, but I really enjoy the old school part of the project. Thanks for watching!
Do you mean the 3D-printed parts? I have a 3D-printer (made a video of it recently). If you mean the blueprints, I find them online and scale them to he right size.
@@49BigPoppa I have tried to make the cab in FreeCad, but it's not handling the curved shapes very well... I'm sure it's doable with the right software and a bigger printer.
Started my 1.35 scale Das werk Dragon kit I've gotnthe flaps on the front grill as kits weren't accurate enough loads wee extras love the RSO this is great work how are your tracks holding up? Still think another one or 2 links you Would take that tension off what is it on the real thing 70 per side?
Hey man, thanks for watching! The tracks are doing great, and need a bit of tension to stay on the sprockets during Sharp turns. I'm working on a set on new tracks that looks a bit more scale.
why do you use plywood vs MDF? I use MDF as it's easier to work with. But i'm guessing this holds up better to getting wet and such.. thanks for letting me know. Awesome build.. this is one of my fav of yours.
Hi! My experience is that plywood is very stiff and durable thanks to its multi layer construction. I'm sure you can build with MDF as well, but plywood seem to work well, since it has cross-wise fibres, compared to the MDF. However, it wasn't a deliberate choice more than some inspiration from Rctankcombat.com Those guys use plywood with great results. I must agree - it's my favourite model too!
@@builtbyWikander Thanks for the link friend. I will definitely check it out. Hope to see more builds from you in the future. A Jad would be a pretty sweet build.
Hello, I was wondering where you got dimensions for the parts here. I've been planning on making a 1:1 replica for reenactments since they're so rare, but wasn't sure if the 1:35 model was close enough to properly get measurements from.
Hi! I struggled with the dimensions. It seemed that all blueprints found on the internet gave different measurements and official numbers did not match the blueprints. I also contacted Technik Museum Sinsheim in Germany to confirm the L/W/H (they replied: ~4200/1800/2200 mm. However, it differs from other public sources). I finally went with one drawing that seemed about right, compared to the Italeri 1/35 scale mode, but since this is a hand-made model, I am sure some of the parts are more or less accurate. It sounds like a very interesting project you are up to! There is a guy in Norway restoring a RSO, maybe he could provide you with more info. Good luck! facebook.com/groups/321790801362585/about/
@@builtbyWikander Thanks, I'll look into it! I believe there is one in the states, I may try to get in contact with the owner for some measurements. For now, I may get the Italeri 1:35 and use it as a base and go from there. If I make any progress, I'll keep you posted.

why do you use drills, when brushed electric motors are readily available for cheap?
Because you get a motor, a battery and a planetary gearbox for next to nothing. Saves a lot of time.
