hand laying turnouts is not difficult anymore. some years ago a guy named tony koester had an article in MR about creating your own turnouts. that article was complete in every detail. i started cookbooking turnouts from the article and they all work better than anything i have ever been able to purchase. the most important thing in handlaying any track/turnout is to go slow, do it right the first time. DO NOT GET IN A HURRY. if you do, you'll end up doing it over, or buying something less than you can create yourself with just a little patience. this hobby is supposed to be fun, not a mad haphazard da***o mediocrity that results in disappointment. <br /> <br />tom
