Re: Modular tracks

Hi Raudi1, I see your point about the size of the rails on a slot set being a bit much for the magnets, and the runoff. I wonder if a system like a giant jigsaw would work http://rubitoff.com/interlocking-floor-mats/ that could have the track printed on it. I think lots of different curves and strai...
