DML Heuschrecke IVb "Grasshopper" WIP

Looking great :v I'm sure this is going to inspire me to get mine in better shape than it is now.

Yeah Tony. I picked mine up at a LHS cause it was marked down 50% off retail. Didn't know what to do with it after finding out the Grasshopper's never made it past the testing stage. Ended up doing a half hearted primer paint scheme thinking something will magicaly happen that never did :unsure:

Three gear disk have to be joined so I put a smear of solder on one side,used pins to aline and index the teeth,stuck the heat to it and sweat soldered them together.
