Ok looking at the oringinal model..It looks like the T track goes on the inside of the wing and the outside....I am glad you caught this. I did not really look that closeGuy Cowen said:

it looks like about 75" per wing...I will try and call steve and ask him
I just checked & the wings are approx 60 inches in circumference + the internal sections of around 15, The original prop has the T all round the wings so I guess that as I said it would need around 4 or more per wing without damaged parts already & without joining small sections along one edge. Does anyone know where to get this stuff as I cant track it down in the UK?propcollector said:
I will try the hot water method Cheers
you can get it here
http://www.plastruct.com/Home.html
but I will call steve and see what he says
Thanks, let me know what the out come is? If he cant come up trumps would you be ordering some & could you order me some if I send you the money? Cheers Guy
ok just talked to steve....he said that he was suppose to have put 8 in the kit...he said 6 would work if you use every inch of it...I just called my local hobby shop and and it is 5.05 for a bag of 7 pieces i got both bags.
If you want me to send them to you just paypal me 15.40 and that will cover the shipping to you 5.05 plus 7 % tax .35 cents 5.40 and 10.00 for shipping,I told him I would just take care of it...he said he would credit or he would send it but with him being so busy and it would take longer than if I go and just get it..so if you want me to send it to you..I can, I have two bags being on hold for me....just let me know

I'm going to near a hobby store that usually has good stock of plastruct items. I hope they will have the right T track.
if anyone wants to place an order with Plastruct they require a minimum $20 dollar purchase.

finally i received my interceptor today !!!!
i hope to receive to the tie fighter hero edition in a few weeks
when steve will be installed .
Hey Steve, it΄s Bjorn, your swedish friend
Please contact me back, I really need to talk to you. I called you today and left a message.
I just put the T strip around 1 wing & some detail on the main body & am left with under 1 strip, this such a great cast & model its a shame that It cant be completed from the box. I would recommend at least 9 strips of the T rack to complete with out worry. I really cant wait to get this thing painted
have you some pics of your work ?Guy Cowen said:

I needed more T- track as well. I ordered some from Plastruct. I ordered product T-4. I got them today and they are not quite the same T-track that came with the kit. The one I bought is on the left, and you can see it tapers in a little. it is not square like the one Steve provided.
there are two different kinds tfs-4 is on the left and steves is t-4...these are the codes...the left is fineline styrene ...and the right is traditional ABS tees
Do we know if one is more accurate?
I did order t-4, I said that in my post. the package is labled as T-4. So either Plastruct pacaged a bunch of TFS-4 in T-4 packages or T-4 is no longer available.propcollector said:
I just ordered some and got it tuesday and it is the same
Steve,
I wonder when you can ship my Tie-interceptor?
Can't wait for it.
thanks Eric.
