Making the tracks.
Each link contains 4 parts.


I place the rods first,because I don't want the glue to close the tiny holes...


Then I apply the glue,and put the top part in place.


When the glue has dried,I have to grind the edges to make them round.
I use a nail grinder found in the womans section in stores.Very handy for a lot of small work.They comes in packages of 10 and costs almost nothing.


When the grinding is done,I glue the small strip on the outside of the tracklink


And when all links are assembled and painted I will add this last part to the links.Not adding them at once is because I dont wan't to destroy them,and the handeling of the tracks are also easier without having to think of this..


So now I have 17 links on the table...


210 links all in all.....I'm really looking forward to this job.....
