I go through the steps that I went through to build my own Track Cleaning Car using an inexpensive boxcar.

GREAT, hope it works well for you. Not hard to do and you can modify as you'd like.

if you use that center hole in the pads and counter sink a tapered screw through into the car and put a light spring between the car bottom and the pad around the screw with a nut inside the car the pads would put a bit of down pressure on the pads...just be sure the weight of the car is more then the spring...don't want a lot of down pressure ....should glide along and the spring will ensure the pads are flat and keep even pressure!?

Why didn't you use the miter box and clamp a square piece of wood as wide as the pad and than cut the pad. I was even thinking using the miter box and clamping 2 pieces of wood simi squeezing the pad in between would have been safer.

Thanks Dan. Sometimes my video editing software does that. I've noticed it in a few other videos as well :(. May upgrade to a newer version!
