Well finally my T-34/85 is wrapping up,just have to add the riders."pics soon".I have been looking forward to starting this one,box really looks loaded.  Just check out these tracks,I can't figure out how anyone could glue the six piece Magic Tracks together,so I tried that Fruils,it is a tedious process wiring the six pieces together with the jig,but not impossible.  |

Fruils will look lovely on the Jagdtiger! It will sit on the wheels perfectly making your job a lot easier at the end.

Ah, I wish I'd seen this earlier...The Magic Tracks on the Dragon T II I did awhile back looked awful but went together so easily it almost made me cry. That being said, nice work on the JT
Regards,
Mark

My very first tank was the DML Porsche KT with these same tracks, was I in over my head or what? I stuck with it as you know:  My second tank was much much easier.  I'll be watchin buddy Tony lee |

Good to see you making progress Anthony! Everything about the Porsche design suspension was different...he couldn't do anything simple I think! |

Excellent work on the JT!! They always look their best waiting on a little color!! Also, one of my favorite sets! Room to play with the colors, not to mention the "grab and go" effect!! Let the game begin!!  |

Looking sharp! Looking forward to see it painted. I think you will like the paint set... it worked great on my 232 earlier.

nice work on this Jagdtiger! Have you had problems with the sprockets Friull? Because the axis of the two pieces were higher than those of the model !!! But I was able to adapt and after removing the stems, hand over a pin of the same diameter !! is my model ended up mounting !!!!    |
