Syd Mead's VEX (model progression)
-
First tread plate.
After the full tread assembly is completed by adding the spring arms, the large cylinder wall will be deleted, creating an open framework.

A very cool washing machine!
-
Looking good Bryan.
-
Thanks Box and Pilou, but I have to remake the tread. After experimenting with it last night, it's wrong.
-
What. A. Pain!
I had to free float the arcs for the tread springs and that only took a few hours to get aligned, then used the "Follow Me" tool to draw square tube along the arc and that took a few more hours.
So don't look to close because it still needs tweaking at the rim knuckle joints.
But more or less, this is it.

Great work on the wheel Bryan

Thank you iichiversii. I still feel kind of stupid because the result it not what I was looking for, but I only have two pictures to use as references.
I will be refining the wheels until next week.
Until I get tired of it.
Just two more things... just two more...

It's done. On to the main vehicle.

Right now it's just a dog. And what do dogs say?
Rough, rough.
I can see this one is going to take about a month as well.

If no one has any major objections or comments, this is the overall shape I'm proceeding with.
In other words, this is the frame I will finish detailing.
