Hello Christophe. Thanks for your help. Makes logical sense too. This simple method could apply to Friul tracks as well. I've used the AFV Club tracks for an M1A1 Abrams and a M88A1 ARV, but it had a guide to how manny links per side. Tamyia's Panther/Tiger II track links are the same I think. Skybow's M108/M109 tracks too. MKs do not, and I agree with you, they give you just enough tracks, so if you goof, you're in for a nasty surprize. Friul's dont have good instructions either, but they are easier to work with, and are better at tweaking to find the right number of links per side. Friul gives you extra links for spares too.

Anyhow, thanks again Christophe. I will be hitting my workbench later today. BTW, was that 2 shot glasses you spoke of ?

Cheers !

Robert
