Default Metal Tracks(Sharp edges!!!!)

Just a warning, the metal King Tiger tracks from BYA have VERY sharp flashing edges that need to be trimmed before painting or wheathering.
These edges are razor sharp, I found this out while inspecting them out of the box(got a nice slice on my finger from the flashing).
Be sure to wear leather gloves when first handling(until flash is trimmed)
The flash trims off very easily and they seem to be a nice set of tracks.
Also, super-glue is definetly needed to keep pins from backing out!

NOTE: BYA provided me with excellent service......and tracks look good after cleaning flash(took about 1 hour for both sides)
Also, the pins are the same type as the Tamiya pins(with the small flat head on them)
