I laminate masonite splines with yellow glue. This requires about a
bajillion clamps. Some folks prefer to use a hot glue gun for
the laminating. If you have a crew of 3 you can get a LOT of
roadbed laminated that way because you only need wait a few
seconds for the glue to set instead of an hour. But I'm mostly
a solo roadbed builder and the extra working time of the yellow
glue lets me tweak it into alignment as the clamps go on. And
it's not like I can't find other things to do while the glue dries.
This view is looking west from Mill City along the roadbed leading
up to Oak Hill. I could only find 3/16" thick masonite so I'll
need to add two more splines to make a wide enough roadbed (thanks
to the @$%#*! folks in Home Despot's purchasing dept).
