The Little World

I must say that the classic British WW1 tank is somewhat of a mystery to me. I’ve never seen a real one and the actual topography of it is a puzzle. I know the lozenge shape but that’s all.

The basic box hides inside the tread, much like the Churchill tank – another enigma. This Emhar kit is doing much to educate. There are few really definite aids to assembly, but the basic structure is reasonably square.

The track races are formed by the side plates and they, in turn are kept in alignment by the central box.

I should not call the actual construction much better than the old Airfix standards, but then I have not built an Airfix kit of this tank. Perhaps I should. Pity it wouldn’t be as economical as this one.

Come on back, Gary…
