I am looking for a set of T-80 tracks for a Sherman.

I have the AFV Club which are a bear to do.

Somebody know of a Resin link ti link snap set or similar.

Have also checked Friul and Modelkasten.


Thanks.

Jeff, running into the same problem with the T 80 track/ T 84 for a kit bash M 50 I'm trying to build, had any luck with other makers of tracks? You used the word bear, I'm having a%#*&^ of a time. tried the tape, jig,metc. at least five hours and very few links. Says on box not to glue, guide horns pop off side mounts fall off, NO LUCK!!!

Nope I just used the Dragon DS ones.

Jeff, not to sound too stupid, however, have seen several references to DS tracks. What are they? I know they're Dragon but sold separate, with kits, etc.? Easy, or should I say easier than AFV? Terry

DS = Dragon styrene. Flexible one-piece (usually; I remember some have separate guide-teeth) tracks that can be glued with regular styrene cement and allegedly take paints better than older vinyl tracks.

As said real good and easy to use also with the New Molding no lines on the side.

That is one review you might have to shorten a link but they are easy to paint and apply plus saves all the hair pulling of indi links for this kind of track.
For metal then Friul is the way INHO.
