Hi jwalk <br />I have always used a double table top the first layer being ply wood or chip board or similar the top surface I use canite not sure what the US equivelent is called but it is a compressed cardboard product with a white surface. <br />I glue and weight it down on the ply wood. <br />When dry I glue the cork to the canite then paint the canite an earth colour the cork grey. <br />When the track is fixed down I pu***he nail through the hole in the sleeper with a pair of long nosed pliers until it hits the ply by which time it is allmost home then get a roofing bolt and then gently tap the nail using the bolt like a nail punch until the nail is home no damadged rail and no damadged sleepers(Ties) <br />And more important no anoying noise coming from a drumming table. <br />regards John
