Thanks!
Before i continue i want to add to the last step - you must pay attention when you assembling wheel disks. There is rear and front. Front is with drawn housings and bolts. Also, when wheels attached to bogies - put it with front outside.
Now, back to the links.
If you follow my thread from the beginning, you know that first of all i assembled links, because i decided that this is the hardest part in this model.
So now all the remained is to to connect them in a chain. Two track pads joined by one end connector each side.
and more...
and a little bit more...
Done
Dressed it on chaises and connected together.
The fact that i left idler wheels not glued help me to stretch chains as i wish, like on a real thing. Then i fixed it in desired position.
I can confirm that you need only 81 links for each side
And... a little surprise. Suspension is live! Works like on a real things. I could do this due to specific design of Sherman bogies.
It is the end of another stage in this model and end of two years of building.
Thanks for following and stay tuned
