Fixing wire runs under the layout

I have stuck loads of cable trunking with double sided tape and generally it stays put the only times they have detached is when stuck to a friable surface. Unsealed wood is a problem particularly MDF, you just need to seal it with paint or varnish and most tapes will hold. The best type to use is the type with a foam core and the most reliable tapes are the ones used in the double glazing industry for fixing trims my local double glazing materials supplier does a range of widths and thicknesses and cheap too.

Personally , I use an electric staple gun and cable ties , works well , holds well and cheap , during the initial build and commissioning/ testing , I leave the cable tie loops oversize to facilitate change , then eventually tighten them up.
