discussion Tamiya tracks

[AuntyClockwise]

Anybody with any hot tips for fixing the infernal Tamiya tracks? I have done the hot screwdriver option a few times and got quite poor results and had to resort to glue, or in one case, staples >_< Just wondered if anyone here had any useful hot tips?

TIA and hope everyone is good!

Ive never had a problem with the hot screwdriver trick..... Always best to make sure they are as tight as possible before applying the screwdriver

Ok I will give that another go, maybe I'm not heating it up hot enough, they just never formed a good seal for me when I used that method. Got a Panzer IV to do and while I love doing Tamiya kits this is usually the most annoying bit

Normal adhesive with perhaps a couple of stitches has always worked for me mate

Stiches is an interesting idea! I like the sound of that
