    Interesting to see the finished product and the type of cars you will run on it
    I like how your honest about making mistakes and showing them Marty 😎😎👍
    Just remember for future builds, measure twice cut once😊
    Look forward to part 2

    This oval will allow you to build both 1/32 & 1/24 oval cars if you so decide. Even the womp chassis provide a good starting platform for some of the dirt cars. Name it what you wish. I would suggest something bold, such as Thunderhead Speedway.

    I can't wait to see how this turns out. I think I told you in an email that all I have is a very small oval made of Carrera track, because I don't have room for anything larger or more complex. Royce

    Cool! I remember when I made my wood track in the early 2000's! I don't know if anyone else ever did it the way I did I always see them doing it the way you did it. I made my MDF table I think is was 7x 16ft and how I routed mine was I first used a pencil and made the outside lane drew the track I likes by hand curves and all without anything at all like a big drawing. next I set up the router to follow that drawing of my track design by putting a flexible plastic down around the shape of the track I drew a certain measurement away from the track I drew so when the router rode up against the plastic wall I made following the pencil drawing the router followed it and cut the one lane out. Now for the other lanes I just put a flexible plastic that pushed into the first slot I routed and then I set the router for lane width and followed up against the plastic wall in the first slot and then got a copy for the second lane and then I did this for the rest and it worked great and I had turns and curved straights that were not just like half circles it was cool because it was a track drawing you could make any curve or crooked straight by hand and have it in your track. Sorry for the book just wanted to share how I did it.

    I might have missed it if you mentioned it, but you're gonna need to brace those legs. If a caster decides not to roll smoothly when you pull or push it, it's gonna be a bad time.
