Seeking input on Turntables

I have been trying to figure a way to turn my trains without using a turntable, but try as I might, I simply do not have the space for a "wye", and do not want to use a reverse loop. So it looks like I have to install a turntable. <br /> <br />Now that I have accepted this fact, I am blown away at the cost of the "more realistic" looking models (Heljan, Walters, et al). The cheesy little Atlas one is about the size I want, and certainly is inexpensive. Is there a turntable similar in size to the Atlas one which looks more realistic? Alternatively, how difficult would it be to scratch build, given that I am an intermediate level modeller? Are there plans out there for scratch building a turntable? <br /> <br />I look forward to your input. <br /> <br />Trevor
