Hi, I am new to Templot and was wondering if anyone has done anything with SM32,  16mm/ft 1:19 scale and could help me out please.
I set out to create a template for a right hand turnout, which I need to fit in the middle a 54 inch radius curve, however as the radius is on the running line I am thinking that it would be better to use a left hand turnout with negative curve.
Having worked through many of the tutorials and help files, I have set up the 32mm track gauge, based on Peco SM32 track and have tried various combinations of switch and V crossing settings, but don’t seem to be achieving the desired results.
Please can anyone help?Thanks.Kim.

Hi Kim,

Yes, normally.

However, have a look at adjusting the substitution radius for your RH turnout:

Hi Kim

I have attached a couple of my own efforts that you may find helpful.  These were built using Peco components but use the Tenmille point levers - the Peco ones are not suitable for out-doors.

Regards.
