The Achilles heel for all tank builders. For whatever reason one side is usually shorter than the other so hopefully you will have better luck. We are all with you on this one my friend

Greeting Steve, the other side is only going to be partly on !!!, As is now done .Keep saying I'll never use plastic tracks again , but fall into the trap .

[JR]

As I have never built a tank with track links I can only offer my sympathy and admiration

Neil thank you, I'd rather build figures and buildings, but needs must .

[JR]

Relax old boy...smoke some hemp and make like daisy chains around a camp fire and soon you'll be done for both sides. The extra half link will give a more exaggerated sag.

Cheers,
Wabble

Wabble , thank you, I've taken to having a Horlicks at bedtime ! Does this count ? Actually had to cut a link in half! Seems to do the job, covered in some mud and hardly seen it will be ok .

[JR]

It's all good JR.......have a little snooze and ease back into it. You'll have it sorted in no time! :thumb2:

Cheers Buddy, getting there slowly.

Just had a catch up. Despite your track woes that's coming on very nicely indeed. Love the look of the engine!

Keep up the great work.

Evening Andrew, the one thing I just can't do is these tracks , even when they are cleaned to perfection ! Now engines are a different matter , love them .

[JR]

Evening all. Tracks are finished, the side that has just been done was much easier as only the back end of the track is on about 2 road wheels along .
Taking a break from sticking plastic I've taken to making some ammo cases from Bass Wood thin section ,much more fun Photos tomorrow .

must have been difficult being called Richard all your life, then......?

No - just Dick....

Evening all. Tracks are finished,

I can hear the cheers from here. I suppose the more times you use these plastic tracks the easier it becomes - hopefully :rolling:

[rtfoe]

No - just Dick....

Lucky for me a huge part of the population of Malaysia don't know the short form of it and haven't heard it used on me. When I annoy some people and they tell me to stop being a dickhead I reply...be more creative. :tears-of-joy:

John, you don't get this award...you d man already...

Was it good for you?:tears-of-joy::tears-of-joy:

Cheers,

Looks like a Despair Inc. poster. My daughter gets me a wall calendar (Demotivational Calendar) from Despair Inc. every Christmas. You may have seen some of my favorite pages in my man cave pics.

Would that be as in "Wabbit" Richard?!

No it would be Wabbit, Wichard

Yes there was excitement and cheering Jim. Just have to pick the right build for decent tracks !
