Lay it straight!

[Herc Driver]

You guys bring out some good points. I used the metal square tubing as a edge guide and got it pretty straight. Then I eye-balled it, pushing here and there. My mistake was placing the pins through the prefab hole in the tie. I think I allowed just enough sway to affect the Atlas flex track. As soon as I'm ready to glue the track in place, I think I'll use a metal straight edge (to the proper length and width) and then eyeball it. Then I'll place a pin or two to hold everything in place. (I'm assuming once it's glued down, there's really no need for additional pinning.) I didn't have this problem on the first layout since it was formed with B'man EZ track.

Thanks for everyone's input...I got a lot of great ideas to try.
