Actually, I first heard it in the GNR Enhanced mod for FO:3, which adds a bunch more period music to the radio in-game

Sorry I thought you was being sarcastic
Why no model update tracks defeated you in the end LOL
OK I got one for you, I want to build some minis but the arms I really have high hopes for are not released yet, do I wait or try to find alternatives ?

That depends on how quickly you want them done I suppose.
I don't want to put the tracks on until after I fgure out the top, all that pressure and pushing and clamping would likely destroy them, they are very fragile. As previously stated, I have no idea how to design a tank.

did i ever tell you lot that i have no ability to smell anything? has it´s benefits... but downsides too... i cant smell the odor of my wifes hair for instance and i couldn´t even smell my newborn kids...(for those of you who have witnessed a birth...you know what i am talking about...)
Vik I'm in the same boat, worked with fertilizer too much, can't smell most things. Somehow I smell my son every time he farts though, I'm told he's particularly pungent though .

@Dave
I see your point it could break or damage the tracks under pressure, especially with them being Individual tracks.
I want to build them now but I want them to look the best I can make them, I think I will wait for the arms to be released then.
My sense of smell has gone weird over the last 2 years, I have even been to a specialist that can't figure it out.
Everything smells wrong, like perfume smells of alcohol only, not the good kind either,most things have an acidic or mouldy smell to it.
The weird thing being its not all the time ?

Yeah, I think I'd rather gag at the smell of dog gak than not be able to smell anything, that would suck.

Dave, I might have missed it but the tank kit your building are you going to build it as the plans have it, or do you have another nefarious plan? Inquiring mind and all.

Well, no it's not really much of anything right out of the box..

that be downright heresy...!
so i doubt it
and yep... wish i could smell the bad smells to be able to smell the good stuff too...and i visited a doc for that too... he was all interested and meant to send me to some scientists... for their amusement so i´ve elt... but also he said to me...there is nothing else to be done for me...darn...
And for smells... Before they added in some nice bridges the 2-3 hour drive to my Uncle's house would have the fun of having to go along a highway in the middle of nowhere, which for a nice stretch had a dump next to it. So a fun 5 minutes or so of that.

My first time in New Jersey, Ladygeek took me down the Jersey Turnpike so I could experience the infamous smell of what garbage, sewer, oil, and swamp smelled like

@not_u, got you beat bud, my first home after we were married (a condominium), had a great view of a garbage dump from our back porch. It wasn't too bad as the company that ran the facility really took care of it, and used enough lime o whatever to keep the smell down, at least that's what the wife told me.
Here I thought Dave always started out with the intention of building it as the box, but the riveter inside takes over and greatness follows.
