These are photos of my first attempt at building a 3-lane slot car
track.
I used 3/8th particle board, a 1/8 carbide router bit, and a special piece
lexan plastic as a guide. I used a very inexpensive router that was more
than
adequate. For the curved overpass and the ramp, I randomly back cut
the underside of the track and it really helped make the boards bend. All
pieces
of the track were screwed to the deck or supporting pieces with drywall
screws.
Bondo was then used to bridge any gaps and then rerouted to complete
the groove.
