Shaggy is your man. Check out his already awesome 1/2 scale build. He has also full scale measurements in the members only section which I only discovered few days ago. Amazing.

yep yep. When you get to the members only area you get free access to a 3d model of my Mark 1 Tumbler, and the Bat Pod. Both in SketchUp, from there you can template it into Pepakura and print templates from you home computer. Best way to get in is to post legitimate post, not just "cool" or "awesome" post. Those are bad. And ask decent questions, but do your research first. If you have suggestions towards someones build, read what they are planning on doing, and if you have a suggestion of an easier way, post away! Thats an easy and best way to show your serious, and not a troll.
Another way is to literally start stocking up on supplies, sweep off the floor and post pictuers of your progress, even if you dont have dimensions. Gather pictures and, as stated, just show that you seriously want to start building. your access can come a lot quicker.
And even tho my models are legitimately free, a donation towards my efforts is ALWAYS appreciated. BUT not required.

One note: I was told by a pretty reliable source that Interco(maker of super swamper tires) is now out of buisiness. i.e. grab yer 44" ers while you can sort of thing.
