Update:
Well there's an old saying that goes "If at first you don't succeed try try again", well that's what I did and finally wound up with a workable pair of rear drive sprockets for my carrier. I made a circle of track the diameter the size I needed then inserted styrene discs inside the circle and added sections of styrene where each tooth should be and well will let the pics tell the rest. Now I have the base made for detailing the rear drive sprockets

Update:
Well the work continues, Here I have added the rear sprockets and gearboxes. The gearboxes are barely noticeable. I'll be adding extensions to the back side of the sprockets to give them the width. Here are the latest pics with the gearboxes and sprockets added to the hull

Harold, what a great job you are doing (although obsessive comes to mind). ;o)
