Review

Once again, we are on the subject of link by link track. With many different types available it can get a little mind-boggling to decide which type is right for you. But in my opinion you can never go wrong with Friulmodel. They are the best link track on the market, are completely workable, and quite easy to assemble. Unlike ModelKasten track, the links hold together with incredible strength. Only when installed on the model, do they really come alive, with that realistic sag between the return rollers, or in the case of Tigers and Panthers, lying perfectly on top of the road wheels.

Assembly is, in most cases a snap, but a No. 76 drill bit, a small pair of clippers, and an X-Acto knife are essential. The drill bit is to clean out the holes that the pin is inserted in. I just put the two links that I am assembling together and then run the drill through. Then without separating the links, I push the wire into the pivot pin, and finally clip the excess to get the pin flush with the hole. Repeat about 200 more times. I have heard about some people using music wire for the pins instead of the provided soft aluminum. This prevents the wire from bending when pushing it in the pivot point. Overall this is easily a five star product.
