smitty44 Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 ...forgive my ignorance if your side of the hobby, but did you know this exists. If so does it work? https://www.micromark.com/Trumpeter-Track-Maker-Assembly-Jig-for-Tank-Track-Links 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlrwestSiR Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 Smitty, I know about it but haven't tried it. A lot of the more recent plastic track sets come with a jig to help you assemble the individual link tracks. I've used some of those and they work very well. Hope that helps.

DocRob Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I have a similar, but smaller and cheaper tool since years and when it came to assembling single link tracks without a jig, like Friul's, I found it not very handy to work with. The downside is, that the links were secured by the tool on both sides, there is no way to insert pins or brass rods. It might be usable for plastic length and link segment tracks though. Like Carl said, lots of the single track links which are included in armor kits are build up with the help of included jigs. Cheers Rob 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
