Les I have taken the plunge whith hals serman firefly and stared with the tracks but alltoue i am still makeing them it has not been the chore that i thout it whoud be only the hole punching. the quality of the printing and the desinge just whonts you to build it.
just cut out all the track parts and then start to asemble them and consider making jigs to help with the alinment of the track eliments. So get the scalpel out and get building and shere the build with us.

Les Here's a link to the track of the T34 from the german site kartonbau Halinski russischer Panzer T-34/76 - Seite 5 - Bauberichte Fahrzeuge - Kartonbau.de - Alles rund ums Kartonmodell

Halinski's T34 has two different link types. Once you figure out how they go together, it goes rather smoothly. I started making links when I started building - do a few as I assemble the rest of the model. Here are a couple of pictures of one type of link - the pieces left to right and on far right, a completed link:


And what I have completed so far (maybe forty percent of the total):


If you plan on starting, I could take some pictures step by step if you want. Of course, I build at a snails pace, so who knows how long that would take!
