Brian you are so organised! Did you like the photo of the Famo struggling with the Tiger 1 I posted?

Re: Brian's 2017 NO. 10 LATE TIGER 1 BUILD
I love it, it is encouraging for me as a model builder to know that the historical accuracy is not compromised by towing a 1/6 tank with only one FAMO instead of the normal three.Phil Woollard wrote: ↑Sat Oct 27, 2018 7:32 pmBrian you are so organised!

Tensioner: Brian's 2017 NO. 10 LATE TIGER 1 BUILD
Morning coffee and Armortek...I am heading to a Halloween themed farm for my son but hope to get all this put together when I get back. It’s been a long time coming!

I slipped these on quickly. What a great milestone! I’ll do the other side when we get back from the farm.
The sprockets get fixed at 16.5mm spacing from the hull side, is that correct?
Thank you in advance.

Re: Brian's 2017 NO. 10 LATE TIGER 1 BUILD
To line it all up , install the tracks and leave the sprocket fixing just a tad loose, all the track horns should line up in the middle of the road wheel corresponding slots, gently pull the tracks around without the key in place . Eye it all up and when your happy install the key and tighten the sprocket tapper bush, then the counter sink screw and washer. The distance of the sprocket from the hull depends on how tight the suspension arms are against the hull bushes. Theres not a lot in it but get it correct and it will run like a dream! Hope this helps regards Phil.

Ok that all sounds pretty straightforward. I don’t know what csk screw and washer are you talking about?
