Thank you all for the kind words.
One of the next bigger jobs is the pavement with all street running tracks in front of the long building. I have to get some material (thin sheets of styrene for the top and some filler to get the styrene just below track level) from a hobby shop downtown Stuttgart. May be I find a time slot next Saturday for that trip.
I have got an idea and a question about that.
Most of the track that has to fit into the pavement is parallel straight running. The tracks are currently only draft mounted on the cork. I may fiddle with the styrene to get is fit between the (some how) straight tracks. May be it is more intelligent and easier to cut perfect straight styrene and adjust the tracks? I am talking about 1/20 of an inch but street running track needs to fit really well to look good. I think it is easier to push a track against straight styrene than to cut a very soft curve precise out of styrene. What do you think and did you do it before one or the other way?
