Cody, <br />I checked the "how old are you thread" and see you are one of our younger members - good on you. Now my question for you is this - how much courage do you have? Use flex track, its much easier to work with than you think. If you want easy then use flex track with AMI road bed if it is available in the country next to Australia. You will need to buy a track cutting tool, which should run you around $12 bucks down there. <br /> <br /> AMI is more expensive than most road bed, but you lay it down where you want and gently press down on it (not to hard in case you change your mind), then when you add the track, you press the track into the road bed, and voilà you have track with no spikes. <br /> <br />In Canada, AMI runs about $22 and it has 30 feet in the box. You can request O scale AMI and cut it in two with a pizza cutter to get even more of bargain with the AMI if you are in HO scale, same goes with HO AMI if you are in N scale.
