    I like the way you are showing, how you do things. I have had eccactly the problem with the connection of the flexitracks in curvers. To solder them, when they are strait is the solution. Thanks.

    Thank you! I've been wondering how to use the flex tracks I was given to make a small N scale Christmas theme layout. Solder the joints before laying the track!

    I have to ask, what kind of solder are you using? Yours flows much better than mine.

    What is the radius of the curves on your layout? Thanks

    • @Gma7788
      @Gma7788 Před rokem

      The radius of my curves is 52.
      I also like 27.
      So now you know.

    Where did you buy the sodder with flux?

  • @tommurphy4307
    @tommurphy4307 Před rokem

    never saw the need for soldering rail joints- even on N-scale lines several miles long. as long as the track is properly stabilized on the benchwork- its just not necessary.

    • @shauntaylor9251
      @shauntaylor9251 Před rokem

      Plus if the layout is anywhere where the temperature changes are extreme like in a loft or garage it's not a good idea

    Doesn’t look good with missing sleepers after cutting it
