The main idea was to have a bycycle over it, and build a jerrycan case holder with four jerrycans, but couldnt find them, so it will be almost straight of the box build in that matter.

Thank you very much for your comments, so I cant lie to you all.
Initially I had expected 2 to 3 weeks to clean the caterpillars, but I'm enjoying it so much that I think this will take 5 or 6 weeks! Pure fun!

This is turning into a real nightmare! Even though I have divided the process into several stages, I only see the pieces changing stacks, with no end in sight.
At the moment I need to sand the inner part of the links, to disguise a little cleaning work from the extraction marks, and make the surface more homogeneous, given too much, aprans take connsuming, and cover the holes in more than half, that will really be complicated. The spare links will go later.
It will also be necessary to widen, and well the holes of the shafts, because it's not that they don't move well, it's just that the pins don't even go in!
On the other hand, I'm going to make some veins to complete the pins that don't cover the entire shaft... about 500 holes... besides that I'm going to have to round off the edges of the links a little, because they seem too sharp to me, and not very credible... as if he didn't already have enough work.
This is ten times more complicated than the Abrams tracks I'm making for my son, that have lots of parts each, or the pzII that was a piece of cake...
I think I'm really going to have to take a break from this one or I'll go nuts.
Thank you to those who follow the process!

Finally I managed to finish plugging the holes of the caterpillars! It took a while but it turned out flawless! It turns out that the kit comes with a lot of spare links.
