Great to see the progress on the layout.

 

I may have missed it somewhere but are you using the Easitrac points (I saw mention of using the track so I'm guessing you are)? Just from experience, I found that using the aluminium jig for the crossing can be a bit of a challenge, but eventually I found that 145' solder and pre-tinning worked OK.

 

I shall continue to watch with interest

Looking good so far. Your fitting seems pretty good, in my case the more critical the hole the more likely I get it wrong.

Steve i am building the track with copper clad sleepers a straight onto the Templot drawing i was going to use easi trac but decided . to be traditional lol

and its working out easier as i can run the rails full length without joins . I will only cut them when i decide where the breaks need to be .

 

Michael i need to work on the fettling as its about 1.5 mm on the wide side i must admit Missy has got me striving for perfection as she is achiving in High Clere
