Hi Joerg and thanks for the prompt reply.
That's ingenious; looks the part and works well too
Perhaps you should consider offering them for sale. I reckon there could be quite a bit of interest as the relationship between frog and wing rails is probably the most difficult part of hand built track to get right and this looks a great solution. I think I'm right in saying that the hole in the square fret acts as a jig to keep each laminate in line with the others. Brilliant.
Thanks also for the info re the wheels. I seem to learn something new about HO gauge everyday!
Solder paste is something I'm eager to give a try; I believe that there's not so much cleaning up of excess solder later.
Good luck with the layout,
jonte
