Just started!
#1

Hi All!

Just started and buying into AFX, randomly got a 5$ set at 2nd hand store!

I have purchased a few old sets and got my young ones into this so hope they will love this hobby!

Can anyone give me pointers on how to make tracks digitally for print, is there some software is used for gallery on this site?

I have found list of AFX tracks here: https://www.afxslotcarmuseum.com/afx-set-layouts. I would like to make better-printed versions of that manual. Of which I have a few now.

I am glad this hobby has not died off! As my kids and their cousins love it at first sight!

Does anyone have tips on cleaning tracks, so far I've used 1000grit and wooded block, keen to know if this is ok. (It has been good to cleanup rusted tracks.)

Does anyone know if length of the control cord matters as I am about to experiment with some lengths :D

Hello Max,

Welcome to the forum.

AFX is alive and well. I am old school and still like Tjets too.

Cheers,
Ken

Thank you for warm welcome!

I've been busy buying up and cleaning old tracks and cars from peeps on Facebook, and then realised.... and splashed first splashed out on new mega G+ cars, then on dual power supply terminal and then a 4 player track! I know verrrrry long way to go there but lesson learned...

I may have gone overboard a bit... but I keep saying its for the kids....  Wrench

Well, at least I have no excuse to build anything I kids want now; After all there is about 260 feet + of track in a giant container now! To much?

I am in the process of building a new table in a spare room, so that's a plus, as the room will get used now!
