This discussion came up in a build thread awhile back and I'm seeking input to finalize the method I'll use for my new oval.
Connecting adjoining routed track sections typically means putting a board underneath that provides a solid place both sections can be screwed or bolted to. However, as was noted in the prior discussion while this ensures the bottoms of the sections are aligned, it will also ensure any differences in thicknesses will be evident on the racing surface where it can cause problems. What's needed is a way to ensure the surfaces are aligned even if there are thickness differences and any offsets are underneath where they will have no effect.
What are some ways this has been addressed?
