All my tracks are sectional with double tongue and groove joints on each section. The corners have molded inner and outer 1/2" thick sidewalls so the tracks maintain their shape during shipping. The straights have 1/2" inner and outer sidewalls for the same reason. Individual corner sections are stood vertically on their sides with the joints facing up and the straights are placed on their sidewalls running longitudinally in the truck or container. Each piece is screwed through the sidewall below the track surface in to the wooden floor of the vehicle. All sections face the same way to avoid painted sections being damaged. Then strips of scrap MDF are used to strap the top of the sidewalls together and extra straps are used to brace against the side of the truck or container. My motto is if it can move it will move, so make sure nothing can move. We have shipped hundreds of tracks in everything from seacans to tractor trailers and 99% of them arrived undamaged. We always painted the outside of the sidewalls after delivery so the screw holes can be filled and sanded. The tracks go back together looking the same as they left the shop, no warping or twisting to worry about.Adjusting the legs to suit the floor irregularities is the final step.I live in Ontario in Bruce county.
Very interested in having a custom built 4 lane track for home use. I have a room approximately 15x16 ft with a 9 ft opening. Located in south west Ontario.
Always nice to see a new commercial track!
Sunday Slot Cars I think the 4 lane track is going in his son’s basement. (Do you know where he lives, kidding, just kidding)
Your a legend, to me. The best tracks I raced on.
Thank you
How in the world do you ship/deliver these beautiful works of art.
If you don’t mind me asking, where in Canada are you located.
