    I was thinking of a Dremel with a cutting disc to cut the outer edge off, as Allen suggested.

      Jack, reading the problem it appears Allen's last suggestion looks to be the most logical.

        All very interesting as I have one of these models on the way after a well below retail bid on Ebay.

          There’s a third method: buy a separate wheel sprue and a set of tracks, and start again.

          I think I’d try your suggestion of cutting off the outside bits first, though.

                Sorry...MIA for a couple of days. Been fighting off a migraine which affect vision in my left eye. Have managed a bit here and there before I go cross eyed, and think I have something that looks passable. A tarp WIP to cover the area that might catch the wrong attention.

                  Sorry to read of the migraine Jack, terrible thing to suffer from , our youngest daughter used to have to go to bed in the dark.

                  Love the tarp, just paper and pva, works a treat.
