> It's been quite some time since we talked about our layouts, so let
us know what you have and why you built it that way (or how you plan
to build it). What would you do differently if you could start over?
Differently: I would have constructed all the benchwork from veneer
core plywood ripped into 1x4's.

Same: if I was in a hurry, I still wouldn't use flextrack. It is an
even trade on appearance - the flextrack ties never look as good as
stained wood ties, but the tie plates and spikes in the flextrack look
better than what I can do with handlaid. In track that is not part of
a switch, a spike every eighth tie or so works fine. Every time I bend
flex track, I spend about the same amount of time realigning all the
ties as I would putting a few spikes in.
