Tiger I tracks question
Posted by stikpusher on Monday, May 7, 2012 1:00 PM

The Tiger I did not have symmetrical tracks- having the sprocket teeth holes centered. Instead they were offset. Now here is my question, were the tracks simply inverted for use from one side to the other or  were there seperate "left" and "right" sided links? I am building one now and as my last Tiger build was in 1984 or 85 I had never considered this before.

 

F is for FIRE, That burns down the whole town!

U is for URANIUM... BOMBS!

N is for NO SURVIVORS...

Early tiger tracks were "handed" - different for left and right side. Very early in the production run they were switched to being the same track on each side.
