You won't believe what this 3D printed tank can do

I've been doing a lot of off camera work to the tank so I could get it ready for this test, It has been a fun test and I've learned a lot about what does and what does not work.
By my observations I'd say that the parts that failed did it so because:
· I printed them really weak because I was running to finish the tank.
· The parts were at least 2 years old and had been supporting the weight of the tank all that time.
· There are a couple of design flaws that introduced unwanted weaknesses mostly on the links.

Even though the fact that it is 3D printed is a clear drawback I think I'm pretty close to it working as I want so I'll keep pushing through. I still consider the tank finished but I'll have to redesign and reprint a bunch of parts. Please let me know what you think about it in the comments!
