I'm a Patreon based scale modelers with a love for tracks.
My designs use 3D scans of real historic vehicles as much as possible.
All designs are tested both for print-ability and fit on the model kits.

Hi Brusher, I noticed over on scalemates that you offer/offered T81 tracks for pershing tanks, but it is not on your cults page. Is it possible to purchase these?
Hey friend, could you update the E100 tracks? There are some small details that differ from the original photos. Your work is amazing!
Hi, ich habe die Ketten 1/35 T-34 Raupenketten - späte Spaltung Typ Waffel #352410001 gekauft, habe gestern gedruckt auf eine Anycubic Photon 7 pro. Washable Resin 2.0 Anycubic. Die Bolzen sind sehr weich und instabil brechen leicht, auch die Löcher sind nicht ausreichend. Hat wehr ein Tip was ich ändern muss damit es was wird?
Hi there, it is me again 😀
I’d like to print tracks for my jagdtiger (takom 8001). Early type. Which tracks would you recommend?
Cheers!

Hi I need track links for the Dragon Panzer iv D, which were the narrower (380mm) version. Which of your panzer iv tracks are of this sort?
Cheers
Matthew
I see someone made a comment about American tracks but I have also noticed a complete lack of British (mostly I'm looking for Churchill) tracks available anywhere. No worries if you have a ton of other stuff on your plate just wanted to point out a potential market there. Thanks!
Hello,
I'm looking for track links for a 1:16 scale German Raupenschlepper Ost (RSO)! Do you have the option of creating a file for it? Regards
Howdy, Tankbrusher.
I am a 3D artist in search of reference material for WWII vehicles. I came across your models and would like to ask if you would consider selling some of the scans you used. Additionally, if you created the scans yourself, would you consider commission work for additional scans? Thank you for your time and I look forward to your reply.
Best Wishes,
Vidarr
Be careful. I paid the money, but I never received anything.
Hi there, if I buy the Tiger 1/35 tracks, how do I use them? Do I need to splice them? I know nothing about 3d printing, thanks.

Hi, Do you have a for M109 paladin howitzer track links stl? Thanks
Hello, is any of your King Tiger sprocket files upscalable to 1/16? Thank you!!
Hello Kai,
First of all, I am glad to read you.
I mean, your alive.
I am not kidding you.
Me and the other patrons cannot understand your complete silence, during the past months.
You can read all the messages we write, trying to contact you.
To hear from you, of course, but also because we gave you money and we didn't get nothing more.
I'm not judging you, but I'd like to understand and, above all, I'd like you to tell me what you plan to do on Patreon.
Thank you.
Yes please. You have been missed.
I gave him money too, and the man disappeared. And he embezzled some stuff.
Bonjour Kai, All the kits on the market have a big problem with American tanks: the hatches and the episcopes. I would be very happy to see your suggestions on this subject. Best regards, Marc.
Hi, I've lately scanned some periscopes for Tiger / Panther / King Tiger (same model for most tanks). Hatches are in the works too. Give me some time.
Hello Kai, in my request, I would like you to produce US equipment and not only German.
Oh, sorry for the misunderstanding. US vehicles I do have tracks in my schedule but I have currently no further plans for these vehicles.

Hello, I really enjoyed your U-shackles for King Tiger.
Could you program U-shackles for Tiger I and Panther?
Regards, Marc.
Hi Marc, most museums have modern U-shackles on their Panthers and Tigers are rather rare. I'll keep my eyes open, because I only use original parts and 3D scan references.
Hi Kai,
thanks for all the wonderful stl files - best downloadable tracks on the market in my opinion.
I recently purchased the 1/35 Winterkette Type 6 - standard - for Panzer III and Panzer IV #352501009.
One of the holes for the track pins, at least when printing the pre-supported version - is too small, the pins won't fit on that side.
Easily fixable by using a wire, but maybe something you could look into.
Doesn't seem to be a printer or resin issue, because all other Panzer III tracks print just fine.
Are you going to offer the dummy Turret Plug for Panther II, as seen on your build of the kit on Scale mates?
Hi, I'll look into it.
Hi Kai, I've already purchased about 20 of your files. Some offer cases for Pins and others don't. Could you offer cases for older models? Regards
Marc
Hi Marc, the crates or boxed pins will be added over time. They are a rather recent addition to the standard. I'm currently collecting more information about track pins and their cast-markings.
Hello,
I bought your type 2 pz3/4 tracks. I use Saturn 4 ultra 16k printer. It seems like any of my common setups would produce the result. The tracks print nice but the pin holes seem to be clogged for the most time. Any tips?
Make sure your resin settings are dialed in-I was experiencing a similar issue on my Sonic Mini 8K with the hyperfine resin I was using-come to find out my exposure time was too high and that was affecting pin holes. Also make sure the prints are cleaned very well and worst case, use a .03mm drill bit to clean the holes out.
Hello, I am an experienced model maker but new to the field of 3D printing. I would like to acquire a 3D resin printer soon. However, I only want to print downloaded STL files from you and do not wish to create my own designs or similar. In short: what programs/software do I need to process the downloaded files into printable formats for the USB stick for the printer? Regards, Ralf
Hello Kai,
I discovered your improved winter tracks for Panzer III/IV ( Type 3) on your Patreon page. Unfortunately, they are not available here, on Cults.
Since i have in work right now Panzer III model in winter cammo, i´m in dire needs of your improved tracks.
So, if I pay for membership in your Patreon club,will I be able to downloads these tracks and possibly Mittelstolen too, on Patreon? Because i currently ( without membership) only see like 20 different types of tracks for the Panter and King Tiger tanks.
With Regards
MartinN.
He's a crook and a thief named Kai.
He stole a lot of my stuff.
He also stole my laptop!!!
And swindled me out of a couple thousand euros.
He didn't fulfill any of his obligations to me.
All the evidence has been handed over to the police!
Be careful!!!
I think everyone should know about this.
Dear Sir,
I really like your model but the price is too much for my country, can you give me a 50% discount code for this price I can afford or even better if you can send me it. Looking forward to hearing from you
Seriously? Do you want him to deliver them, paint them and weather them too. Oh, for free too right?
Seriously Ozak, if you can't afford these low prices than you shouldn't be into 3D, as how could you afford the printer and resin. The designer makes models and if you want them you need to pay. This is not a charity.
Hello,
I bought 1/35 KV-1 / KV-2 700mm Split + Standard workable track #352502007 yesterday.
However, only one side of the 350mm track was included.
Please send me the other side of the 350mm track,
thank you.
I printed these tracks yesterday. With Lychee Slicer, I created a mirror image of the little track. For symmetry, you create the second half of the track yourself. It would certainly have been better if Kai had offered this piece as a base... not everyone is necessarily a top slicer!
Hello, I have purchased 3 track sets from you, am very happy with all 3, and plan on purchasing more. Panzer 38(t), Tiger 1 Late, and Panther Late. My question concerns the pins. In the 38(t) and Tiger sets, the pre-supported pins are encased in a box. The Panther pins however, are not. Do you find that encasing the pins leads to more successful prints? If so, are you able to create, or have available, the same type of case for the 2 sets of Panther pins?
Thank you.
