Ah! Now I see how they work. That’s pretty cool. I wonder how well they worked. I could see them maybe cutting a tire, but I suppose they had that worked out.
I would need to up my soldering skills before trying such a thing. Or, maybe that would be a good item to improve my skills…not sure.
I would saw they are and they aren’t. Kind of like they were only intended to make the footprint larger so they wouldn’t sink in the mud or snow.
Thank you very much Tom… great photos and explanation. The light bulb went on as soon as I saw the photo 
I am definitely looking forward to seeing the end result!
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who needed a nudge! 
So I wasn’t alone lol.
Man…you are just screamin’ through this build now Tom. Looking forward to seeing you get those tracks onto the wheels. I never even knew this kind of stuff existed.
Well, it took a while, but I got those tracks primed, painted, chipped, and glued to the wheelsets. It required some creative engineering which you can read about in detail over at the main build thread.
In the end, I’m very happy with the look, and any irregularities can easily be hidden during the weathering process. Speaking of weathering, I’d better get back after it!
Yes!!! They look fantastic! Well done! 
I love it! I bet it’s a real pain to put these together
