Tool to aid cork cutting!

Found this link on the Big H. Shows you how to use the Quilter's Magic Seamer for marking out where to cut cork underlay.

Great  little tool   Poliss   worth picking  one  up  for the  toolbox  .......    thanks  for  the  link

Wonder if there's a smaller one for N scale?

I'll make one for you and Nick if you want, Pol.  I've got some 9mm dowel which I can centre drill and slice off a section (or two to allow for wear and tear!).  It will give you a  4.5mm line from the sleeper ends.

Would it be any good?

That would be perect Tom. Just measured my Kato track and the ballast width is exactly 4mm. How did you know?????

Hi  Tom,  

Many  thanks  for the  offer   but  i  use  WS   trackbed    not  cork    .....  think  i  overbought  on  the  N scale  though      have 3  24ft  rolls  to use  up          

Thanks  for  the  offer  again.

It just looked about right Pol.  A good guess, really.

I'll do a couple and get them in the post to you.

Enjoy!

thumbright Your a star Tom.
