Then you weigh up all the pros and cons, for example see this topic: topic 2415 - message 16321 and then you decide on 0-MF.  It's true that 0-SF would give you slightly better results and appearance, but with the restriction of using Slaters wheels only. So you would not be able to run 0 gauge models with other or older wheels. And you would need to make your own gauge tools for 0-SF, whereas gauges for 0-MF are available from Debs (and also I believe from Roxey Mouldings): topic 1811 If you adopt 0-MF you will also be following in the footsteps of many recent 0 gauge modellers, where 0-MF is rapidly becoming established as the preferred option for handbuilt track in 7mm scale. 0-MF is 31.5mm track gauge with 1.5mm flangeway gaps. regards, Martin. |
