Video building Finetrax double slip

Hello, You can download the instructions for the double slip build here: https://www.britishfinescale.com/v/vspfiles/pdfinstructions/Double Slip Instructions.pdf Thanks, Wayne -
Hi Guys, how are you all? I will soon be offering printed templates for all my Finetrax kits, £2.49 each. This is especially useful for the larger 4mm scales where the templates are in A3 format, and you don't have access to an A3 printer. It's still possible to print 2 pages in A4, but it does require cutting and taping together. My pre printed templates remove that need, and you can be confident that they are printed to scale. Should see these on the website in the next 2 weeks.

Hi Guys, Sorry to hear of the warping issue you have. Colin has kindly posted from the assembly instructions above: All the bases go through a post heat treatment after they are printed and UV curved. This both helps with material strength and also it helps with warping. But this is, as previously stated, a by product of 3D printing and it seems to readmonly affect some bases more than others. The bases will require to be firmly glued down and ballasted. I have bases here that I’ve glued down with PVA over 3 years ago, they have not budged. Once glued properly while pinned flat, they are fine. Mike, if you send me an email, I can send you a replacement base? Thanks, Wayne.

Nice videos! The traverser works great and the loco runs nice and smooth through the Finetrax pointwork!
