Marking out

0900 hours ready to get started, strong Coffee and sunshine! Above are the tools I used.

Good use for the clamps. Held down the tape measure whilst I marked out each station

Marking the Stations out. I made a few mistakes here, mostly taking the readings from the wrong stations but at least I noticed the mistakes before it was too late. Just took it nice and slow. I think I spent about 3 hours marking the board out completely.
I laminated the diagrams for the curves so I can use them again if needed. Also with the laminate on I can tape them to the boards and still peal them off easily. Being thicker means they can be drawn around much easier as well!

Laminated templates stuck to the boards before tracing (A bit out of focus, sorry!)

Finally putting in the curves and joining the dots. I had to get my wife to give me a hand here. I know I could have used nails but with an extra pair of hands available this was very easy.
