Roads

The following is my road system. 3mm MDF board cut with interlinking notches to prevent movement during play. I have not decided on a type of flock\static grass to use and therefore the dry brushing and flocking still need to be done.

Cross Section


T Sections


Y Sections


Long Turns with starts and ends.


Short Turns with starts and ends.


Straight Sections with long, medium, short, starts and ends.


Any road setup can be created with these sections.

    You can use hardboard MDF is similar without the coarse underside.

  4. If you were to snap it in half it would look the same. The sizes in length differ but board width is is 80mm and the road surface 50mm shoulders therefore 15mm each.
