 Subject:  Stirring another pot...or why do we settle for closed guide horns?List thread.  
  
 Date:  Jan 4, 2003
 From:  Andy Herbert 
OK, I was looking at a variety of kits, and remembering how often I've
read that the kit supplied tracks are great except for solid guide
horns. This has been passed off as 'impossible to have open guide horns
because of the molding process', or some such.

I have the DML T26. The tracks have open guide horns. Alan's PzII tracks
have open guide horns. MK can do it, right?
Why do we get three beatiful Panther kits from DML, all with solid guide
horns for the tracks? Is it something about the number of guide horns on
the tracks? Would it be more expensive to have accurate tracks?

Just curious.

By the way, I received both the DML Panther A kits for Christmas.
WOW!!!!!!!!!!!
