The tracks do look good Philipp but I'm not sure how doing a dance would be helpful.

Love moveable tracks, truly
hate resin (I mean the solid stuff is okay.. but something
moveable AND thin enough to easiely
break?)... so it's theoretically a toss up, in reality though... errm... no
.
So I suppose this is why I never tried resin tracks and don't intent to in the near future - though I wish you the best of luck with them!
Best regards

Yeah, I guess metal pins might be a better option....or, you know, just make the bloody stuff from regular plastic and sell 10 billion sets because
there are no workable plastic early 40cm tracks available anywhere
Anyhow, here's a little progress:
Right now the fenders and superstructure components are only held together by friction, gravity and prayers to the
machine spirit because I'm feeling insufficiently rested tonight to glue anything of major importance together.

Indeed it is Vincent
Here's a little more:
All major components have been fitted with no problem....but....
It's not quite as obvious here, but the sandbags have gaps everywhere despite being made
for and
with this very kit.
I could fix this with some putty, but....
Nah, I don't think I can fix
this...
So, back to Milliput,
as in the days of yore...
