So far so good.My solution was to use the provived jig's bottom half carefully push the pins in in block and trim them off the sprue with a new xacto no.11 blade.I did about 25 tracks.I found when you clip them off the sprues you have sand off the 3 attaching nubs with a sanding stick. Have yet to figure how to connect groups of links together but I will.

Clipping groups is basically done using the jig also.

Any chance we can get a pictorial of this so we can actually see what's happening?

Bob,
search option at the very top in the black bar to the left of your name. Select armorama.com and type in your subject. Works very well,much better than netork 54 searches.

The search function here is horrible. Just try searching "old warlocke" and see what it returns. I recommend using photobucket.com . It is pretty straight forward.

I guess it all comes down to using logical search terms Matt.
As an example, copy and paste the title of this thread into the search function and it's the first thing that comes up.

Let Me try again.
Click on the FORUMS button at the top of the page.

Click on the Armor AFV Button.
Then click on Modern Armor Button.
Click on the little square box with the #2 in it this will take you to the second page.
The build you are looking for is 20 lines down.
The Pics. you are looking for are on the second page of the build if you don't want to look through the whole build they are #90 to 106 if you follow what I did and take your time you shouldn't have too many problems.
Hope this helps.
Donald

Or you could type in my name wolozanski in the little white box at the top of the page make sure you have the Armorama button beside it selected.
This will take you to all of my builds posted here on Armorama.

Thank you. My confusion was spawned by the misspelling of "Warloke".

I have finished the other run of 87 links yesterday. Now to paint them and use 2 pins to link it together as a contineous track.It was a lot easier than the 1st set of tracks with kit no.1.
