Re: Tank Treads

You could try http://www.andymark.biz/am-0566.html or http://www.andymark.biz/am-0565.html for some belting material. AndyMark also sells 1" wide x 10' long pieces, officially for use on a plaction wheel. Nothing says you can't put some 1" wide pieces of different types side-by-side to get a tread. You'd still have to figure out how to connect the ends, though.
