Thank you, I've been lurking for months, just haven't had anything to add haha. But yes please, I'd love more info on your modules. I think I can manage 2 inch foam.
Welcome! I know you will do great. Just be careful. After all, we're working with two (2) of those inch things here. This IS z-scale, yep.
Welcome Jake, My 30 deg modules are end to end compatible with the Wiki standards. If you want a drawing or an end jig, let me know via the trainboard "conversation" mode. I recommend you get an end jig from some place. Of all standard dimensions, the center to center track distance has to be constructed as precise as possible. Robert gave a nice kind of editorial on standards about 2/3 of the way down on page 5 of this string. I'll send it to you in a conversation so as to not fill up this string up with redundant material. Have fun.
Some folks asked to be notified it I made a more that two track jig. Here it is . If you want a pair, let me know via "conversations."
Now that we are pretty much settled in after the move back to Panama City, I have room to do an "L-shaped" layout. All of these modules will fit on 2 six foot folding banquet tables. I'm planning on starting the project in a couple of weeks. Here is the plan:
I laid out the modules to make sure that they would fit on the two tables. Things to do: Paint the inside corner module Add the leveling feet to modules Lay track (industrial quint is already laid) Wiring ....and many more too numerous to list As a refresher here is the track plan.
I started laying out the track today. I haven't secured it yet as I am waiting on some Atlas 2092 Code 55 Terminal Joiners to arrive so I can install those as my feeders.
I completed laying out all of the track today to ensure that everything would fit. I miscalculated how much more track i needed and was short 4 pieces of the 220mm straights. Fortunately I had a supply of 55mm straights that I used and was able to complete everything. Now I'm just waiting on the Atlas feeders and then I can tack everything down.
