Ok to prove to myself that I am not just hot air I started to build my first 2mmFS point today. I deliberately have not followed all the things I have seen on the t'internet as I didn't want to to be too precious and just get on an do it, learning from my mistakes and then moving on to better modelling. This is a picture of my temporary and some what mobile work bench with the first rail down. Unfortunately I have to go out now so maybe more will happen later although some liquid refreshment may have been taken.

Good to see that you have gotten started. You are doing things the opposite way round to me as I normally start with the straight rail rather than the diverging route.

Well I am doing things rough and ready so it's probably going ruffle 2mm pros, but I am just trying out and having a go.. I'm sure doing it on a cd jewel case is not approved. Anyway we'll see if anything runs on it!!

That looks suspiciously like a pile of tokens ready for the swear-box strategically placed on the workbench ;) , it's good to see that ALL of the essential 'tools' are readily available...
