Hi guys, good subject this one, which in time is going to effect all of us one way or another! In regards to using new metal, is it not worth melting down the old track or does the process destroy the make up of the material ? As those who would be committed to buying new track ( and numbers I'm sure would help with the price ) could literally throw into the pot what buggered track they do have. Lynns right with the drilling side of it, I'm still mucking around with my drill press and jig so as to drill out flogged track ,I don't have the drill depth, the original holes are oval so those that I done have taken alot of work for not to much gain. Some of the biggest wear is to the side of the toe's of the track where it meshs with the next link. So even though I may have tightened up the track along the length a bit it is still sloppy with sideways movement.
