Got my helix as far as I could this past weekend. Like most of my big projects, I usually run out of something. I ran out of code 100 flex track in building the helix. I though for sure I had enough but it would not be me if I had "everything"! If you have ever built a helix, you know you have to lay track as you go up. I used screws with finishing washers to attach the track to the helix. It gives the track room to wiggle when it's in the garage. I hope to get it completed this weekend. Getting it installed would be great but probably not going to happen this weekend. I'll try my best. I plan on using code 83 track on the lower level so a transition area will be when the track is completely out of the curves of the helix. More updates later.

| My stopping point. the helix has gone together quite well. I'm only hoping it operates well also. Still got to add bus wires. |
