3D Drawing for Conceptual Design

Downloaded a nice 3D drawing of the Abrams drawn by Loupie using the handy Google Sketchup. Well, I'll be editing and testing all the conceptual design on this drawing board prior to the actual modification. Good design practice !

Laser Targeting System - Intro

Well, basically this build is the easiest of all. The idea is to have a laser beam to guide or assist the turret during targeting.

More on the installation process soon.
