Description
So you want to make N scale turnouts by hand but not SO by hand? How about using a Rail Cutter to help speed the process as well and let you use standard sized components? Behold the Rail Cutter Tool from Socrates! These are designed to cut the stock, diverging, frog and guard rails for code 55 N scale model train turnouts. Check out a short YouTube video on how to use the Rail Cutters here: https://youtu.be/-uNhLekttm0 The #2 Wye, #4 & #6 Turnouts as well as the #6 3 Way Turnouts are available. I made a second shorter version of the #4 Turnout for the smallest final size since I'm squeezing into a small 2x4 foot layout. Do not use support, in some cases it will fill the rail slots with a "support"...
