Title: Cheap sources of flexitrack
Post by: michael on April 30, 2012, 08:52:42 PM
Hi all

Im making a fiddle yard thats going to be out of view so I want really cheap track in pretty much any state.

Most second hand stuff on ebays expensive so I wondered if anyone had any ideas for either cheap sources of track or even alternatives? I mean, whats involved in making your own straight track??

Thanks

If you are patient you can get bargains on eBay, set up and save a search for flexitrack, that way you will get emails when it appears for sale.

I found this lot:

No problem Michael, I know from experience that eBay just takes time and if you wait long enough you get what you want at the price you want.

You should have a look at http://www.petersspares.com/index.html (http://www.petersspares.com/index.html) they are very good on prices if you have to end up buying some new flexi track  :thumbsup:
