Moore testtrack

Post by Lasp »

During the winter I have tested different methods too build a track.

I just want too show some experiments.

I guess that the pictures talk for them selfs? If not, ask!

Any issues with the cars traveling across the seams? If this works, there are some really inexpensive ping pong tables that fold up just like this. Could start a whole new trend here.

Thanks for respons.
I use a soft material of 5mm and the sheets are 590mm x 790mm. Just for testing.
I use a wheel korrigated to make so place for the tread.

Before I put glue on the tread I straighten it by draging it betwen my fingers, take all tension away.

The problem here is that I have to get another way of shaping the lane changing.
