Hello,

Having made about a dozen 0-EM turnouts now for my layout it's time to have a go at my first double slip.  I was wondering how to arrange the printout so the outer switch blades show correctly inside the stock rail.  2165_130354_110000000.png2165_130354_110000000.png
Grateful for advice on this.
Cheers … Alan

Hi Alan,

Fix them all with one click:

If you do any further work on the slips, shoving timbers etc., you will need to do it again. So this is one of those jobs which you leave to last.

cheers,

Martin.

Brilliant, sorted. Many thanks indeed.

As the blades on these are quite short, is it necessary to make them hinged?

Thanks … Alan

You can get away with unhinged, but for how long?
What i would do(I!) is hinge them to be sure and a solid throw bar.
My two cents.
