Wayne R Wrote:Your handlayed track looks great. I have always liked the look of handlayed track. My plan for my new layout is to handlay some of the track. I already have a Fast Tracks #6 turnout jig for code 83 rail for building my turnouts. I have built a couple with it and very happy with the results.
I am looking forward to seeing some more pictures of your track work as you make progress.

Thanks Wayne.
If I could do it all over again, regarding the FT fixture, I'd have bought the # 6 double x-over fixture. I terms of versatility you can make a single turnout, a single crossover or a double all using the same jig. Right now I have a number #5 turnout and a # 6 curved. The # 6 double x-over you see in the pictures I built free hand on a paper template.
