To be honest David I don't know and initially I have plans to do either. I found reference to fabricating track links in one of the cruiser tank reports which although found their life to be in the hundreds of mile, 600 I think, indicated that the trial was never repeated. The items that will have to be correctly treated are the track pins but at present I can't find any information, material heat treatment, on them so any assistance would be appreciated.

Bob, what's spare time, in my world it never existed.

Jon did you ever get any track pin info regarding material and heat treat?

I don't have anything the on the Panzer II but I do have the following from a CIA report on a captured T-34, maybe this will help.

Hello Jon,

I am in awe of the engineering and ingenuity that you demonstrate in your recreations :thup2:

Chase, sorry for such a late reply but than you very much it is much appreciated.

Evening All, I haven't posted anything recently because there's not much to report apart from the tracks are taking longer than I would wish. But, today my son and I moved the tank from the workshop up into the storage shed, that I refer to as my museum.

Last one, for some reason I am having problems uploading pictures.

Jon

Almost looks like a war trophy recovery, Jonathan!
