Quite a nice tank, Jonathan. Where did you get those tracks? I think they • were
available in some Technic set years ago but not now. I'd like to be wrong and
have a chance to get them somewhere :)

Yes indeedy, those appear to be the old, large, tread links that came
with early Expert Builder and Technic sets.

They are still available through Pitsco/Dacta, AFAIK:

    "Conveyer Belt Links"  779938  $6.00 for 36.

(This is from a 1998 catalog.)

Thanks a lot John. I'm going to see if I can get some of them.

That's an Ogre, they eat tanks for popcorn snacks.

You deserve a 6-GEV attack...

No, no, please! I promise, I promise I'll pay more attention what I say next
time!
