Interesting stuff, but slightly expensive. 50$ for a full track set and 15$ for shipping... :?

Depends how much you think your sanity is worth. I've seen some of those individual link track sets Gary has built. I got some here and they are quite daunting :lol:

I ordered some Bronco T97E2 track to use as spares on the Magach 2 and could not believe how complicated they were to assemble.

Very similar price to what we buy a set of aftermarket metal replacement tracks here in NZ.

Bronco are easy. Try Modelkasten tracks with EECs. 9 parts per link and you need about 90+ per side on a Firefly :lol:

Wow, you are a glutton for punishment. I used ModelKasten on the Hetzer and thought I would go blind with the minute pins. I used their metal JS track and assembled a whole run before I realized that the pins were inner and outer designed.
