Hi Don, If you are using sectional track all you have to do is just lay the track on your table/subroadbed and use the nail/spike holes to mark the centerline of the of cork roadbed. Then take the track up. Align the cork roadbed butt end to butt end on the marks you made and fasten it down. The joint between the two pieces of cork roadbed becomes the centerline of the track. <br /> <br />For flex track you'll have to draw your center line on the subroadbed then put down the cork/track as described above. I use an old yardstick with holes drilled in it to make various radi curves and then use the straight side to lay out the straight sections. Actually with a little practice you can "eyeball" curves into place. Take Care....Vic
