plus-plus tutorial building a tank

How to make a Plus-Plus tank. One of my most popular YouTube videos is this Plus-Plus tank build, so I decided to make a detailed tutorial, so you can make your own.

I really like multiple things about my tank build. First I think it looks pretty great, properly the best Plus-Plus tank build I have seen so far (not that there are so many). It also uses some pretty cool technics and therefor does need that many blocks. Last it can be opened easily and you can hide something inside.

Im looking forward to sharing this build with you. Hope you enjoy it. Lets get building

Difficulty: Medium

Time estimate: 5 minute build

Note that the tutorial below include a minor change, that I added later for better stability of the cannon.

Plus-Plus Tutorial: Tank Instructions

Step by step tutorial

Time needed: 5 minutes

  1. Building the tank cannon

    Grab 4 black Plus-Plus and make this shape.plus-plus

  2. Top and sides

    Here you need to make 3 shapes out of 12 green and 7 black blocks. The two of the shapes are identical and the last one are going to be used to hold the cannon.plus-plus

  3. Combine the top and sides

    Combine the two shapes you just build. For now it might not look much like a tank, but It will very soon!plus-plus

  4. Shaping the blocks into a tank

    Bend the sides of your build like seen below. We did not add a single Plus-Plus here, but it already looks a lot more like a tank.plus-plus

  5. Prepare for the cannon

    Take 2 black Plus-Plus and add on top. This is to provide support for the cannon that we are about to add. Note that I did only place one black block here in the video. Both ways work, but I think I prefer this way.plus-plus

  6. Add the cannon

    Add the cannon you build in the very first step. The tank will be a bit unstable now, so lets fix that.plus-plus

  7. Building the bottom of the tank

    Make this flat shape seen on the image below. You need 7 green and 2 black blocks.plus-plus

  8. Connecting the bottom of the tank to the rest of the build

    Turn your tank build upside down and connect it with what you just build.plus-plus

  9. Almost ready

    Fold the bottom part down. They can be opened again in case you want to put something inside the tank. Just be a granate like one of my viewers suggested or the person controlling the tank.plus-plus tank
