Repetative wheels - how many parts?

Twenty four wheels in total! That is how many I had to make for the Trumpeter Grille30 30.5cm L/15 Mörser kit. Each of the running wheels and the drive wheels are two separate kit parts whilst the rear idler wheels are four parts a piece making a total of 56 parts if my math's is correct - it usually is unless I am informing Mrs. Woody as to how much I spent on a model!

I have left the wheels loose on their axles at the moment so that I can easily paint them when the time comes so there are another 22 hub parts to also add to the wheel list which to my reckoning makes a total of 78 wheel parts! I have to admit though that there was minimal cleaning up of the various parts to do and they went together like a dream so I cannot complain!

Of course, in my usual impatient way I had to try fitting the upper hull to the lower - just to get a feel of how big this thing is!

Yes! It is big and comparing it again to the recently built Kangaroo APC you can see just how big in comparison and the Kangaroo only has 16 wheels!
