hi all
returning to this hobby....well kids had it 30 years ago
so.....bought a set ....'CARRERA'....seems ok, acording to the rightup on the net it can take all other cars at the same scale.......
anyway I've got a 6ft x 3ft table made and used 'stiky fixers' to secure it....little foam pads.
not keen on the bridge support so may make my own.
it is just two single uprights one for each end of higher section. on the outside edge [ fig 8 track] .
I aim to landscape it and possibly extend to 3/4 as big again .
very quiet here???
regards

hi people,
well I managed to get another two sets to enlarge the track runs,
it also gave me 4 more cars
here is a quick setup -minuse the bridge supports - I am looking at iether styrene or wood to use as suports and landscaping of some sort, the top left runs are 3 high in this 'flatend' pic of the track, tested and runs ok.
regards
