Obviously the cut could have been better but you work with what ya got. 🙂

Did you cut and make the lane split as well?

You said you have used your table saw. What blade did you use? Thank you for sharing this

I used a panel cutting blade (80T I believe) for the straight track and put the blade on reversed.

I thought that the fittings were very good and this layout to enter the pit is very uncommon and interesting. Thanks for sharing it. I was wondering Why not cut a piece of MDF instead of cutting the track pieces for use them as shoulders ?

Gerson thanks for the comment. It is very rare that I can't use a stock Carrera border on the track and I never cut track pieces to use as borders, only as a custom track curve or if I need some single lane straight pieces. This is the only spot on the track where I used the outside lane as a border but it wasn't cut. A long time ago I experimented with Mdf and while it did work the grip properties of the track was different. The Mdf was a lot slicker.

I think I misunderstood what you were asking. By track pieces I thought you meant the actual track itself. Sorry. I will always use a stock border if I can, even if I have to cut it. I explained why in the above post.

How many feet of track is your layout?
@dw5555 Жыл бұрын
I think it's right at 100'. I doesn't seem like a lot for such a large area but I've had the put as much track as you can into an area, but this time I wanted to spread it out a little bit.

I noticed that the G piece is 2 M pieces. So I'm going to cut my G which are a dime a dozen pieces to get more M pieces. Thanks!

Sorry I don't understand. What are G and M pieces?
