I've never built a layout with super-elevated curves, but after seeing some really cool pictures taken on layouts that have them, I'd like to give it a try. 

Some questions:

1) How much do you super-elevate the curves? I'm planning on using 1/32" thick basswood for the super-elevation at the outside end of the ties. That would amount to about 3 scale inches in HO. Is that too much? Or is that too little to make it worth the work? 

I tell you, I did not want to rush the process of building this module. My plan was to take several weeks tinkering with it. But that was not to be. The Great Train Expo is on our doorstep and every effort has been made on my part to have something that resembles a partially built module ready.

Quick update.

First off, I recommend using a piece of plastic wrap between your clamp and whatever you are gluing down with Gorilla glue.

Works great. Once dried you can carve away the excess.

Most of you have read my pink foam fiasco. Suffice to say that issue has been solved and I'm moving forward. The show is coming up this next weekend and the guys asked if I would bring my work in progress modules to the show. Being the seeker of punishment that I am, I said okay.
