Helix is finished , now to figure out where I need auto-reversers.







I tested the helix with 3 different sized and motorized engines , some small problems at first but a couple of hours of adjusting and fiddling did the trick.

Thank you Karl , now for the 2 staging yards in the adjoining room , problem is I'm out of wood and the DIY stores are only Click & Collect at the moment , I like to stroll around in the store and see if I need anything else , plus I want to choose the wood myself.

Good looking helix.  What is the ruling grade?  What is the distance between levels?  Inquiring minds want to know.

Great job on the helix Jan. Looks like a nice gentle 2.5% grade.
Mike :)

Thanks Judge and Mike , grade is approx 2,25% ,  45 cm height in 20 meters of track, distance in levels about 6cm

Given some recent history in NL, that's probably A Good Thing  ;D     The helix looks great!
