| Subject: | More fragile, but more detailed and potentially workable. |  |

There are two different series of MK tracks.
The older K series are assembled the same as the DML tracks, though they tend to be more sharp in detail and not as sloppy in the assembly. A definite upgrade in that sense.
The SK series are more fiddly, somewhat fragile, but not too bad in assembly. If you are careful, they are workable and give a very nice hang to them when appropriate. Or, you could also glue them solid as well if you want.
But the Sherman tracks, BEWARE!!! Those things are the uber-part-count monsters of the modelling world. The rubber pads are I think 4 pieces each. That doesn't include the end connectors. I'll stick with AFV Club or RHPS thank you.
