Try thecentral valley turnout kits to get your feet wet. These have self-guaging tie strips that align the rails easily. After andassembly or two you will be able to tell if you like it well enough to make the whole turnout by hand. I handlay most of my turnouts and specialty trackage though I still use flex-trak for all other areas. I like the vesatility you get with handlaying turnouts to fit each situation. You can best utilize the space you have. I don't handlay everything because of the time involved and also I don't think handlaid looks any better. You may want to take this mis and match method also.
