This topic comes up every now and then, so let's explore it fully to see
where it goes. The new thread is called "Model T" because that's the
car that simplified the young car industry and boosted it to the next
level. So the main questions to be answered here are:
1) What's the minimal cost to construct and battle a tank for the first
time?
2) How many hours does it take to construct a tank the first time?
3) Which parts are readily available and which parts must be created in
the workshop?
4) If a starter kit were produced, how much would it reduce the time to
construct a tank and/or increase the project cost?
Feel free to contribute as much or as little to every answer (or add
more questions) based on your lessons learned and we'll start pulling
together the collective wisdom into a How To article. Many of you may
be surprised by the outcome of this design analysis.

What about someone coming up with a design that is a new breakthrough
in simplicity and cost, so that the number of people who could
participate in some version of this hobby could be increased?
