<p>Well my 2 cents is to use what you have. The thought is you'll change as you gain experience and design where this/that goes on the layout or next one. </p><p>As for tools. I used the dremel for cutting track when necessary. A hot glue gun for tacking the track and cork down and running a train in minutes over the section just laid. Then a quick ballast in a few places to hold the whole thing down. I also used the sectional track for curves and soldered the joints together before placing them down. Get a ribbonrail curve gauge or two to check your work and have fun. </p>
