Woodland Scenics ST14409B Bulk 4" Risers (8)

ST14409B - Bulk 4" Risers - 8/pkg Risers are generally used with Incline/Decline Starters to create varying grades on your layout. Risers are easily flexed to form curves and work on plywood or foam bases. To install, pin in place with Foam Nails and attach with Foam Tack Glue or Low Temp Foam Glue Gun and Glue Sticks. All Risers are a Patented Product. I am wondering why the O scale Track-Bed is wider than the foam inclines and risers. Am I missing something? When modeling in O scale, Inclines and Risers need to be placed side-by-side to double their width. Will I need 2 Risers or Inclines for a double track? Risers and Inclines are 2 1/2" wide. You will need to install 2 sets side-by-side for any scale double track. How are turnout switches attached to Risers under Track-Bed? Cut out a section of Riser where the under table switches will be located. Use 1/4" piece of Foam Sheet, Masonite or plywood to bridge the gap. Notch each end of the Riser to accomodate thickness of material. Material should be level with Riser. Glue into place and mount the switch. What is the the tightest turn the risers provide? The tightest turn Risers provide is 9?. What is the difference between O and On30 scale? What scale track, risers and TrackBed are compatible? The "n" stands for narrow. On30 describes the modeling of narrow gauge railways, using O scale trains with narrow tracks that run on HO gauge track. For your On30, you can use SubTerrain Risers and Track-Bed. How can I use your Risers to accomodate my S Gauge layout? To accomodate S gauge, double the Risers width by placing them side-by-side. When I use the Incline Set, do I have to put the Risers under the inclines? No, you do not need to use Risers under Inclines, but using both allows you to increase the elevation of the track throughout the layout to create lower surrounding areas easily, such as creek beds and ravines. For further information and instruction about using Risers and Inclines, watch the how-to videos on our website and consider purchasing the SubTerrain Manual. I model in O scale and am wondering if your inclines and risers will be able to hold up under the weight of the engines over time, or will it compress? Our SubTerrain Lightweight Layout System is made of a high-density foam material that can withstand a lot of weight. It's designed for this application. I have your Risers and Inclines. Would Foam Tack Glue or the Low Temp Glue Gun be best for adhering these? Both adhesives work equally well. Foam Tack Glue is high tack white glue and works well as a contact cement. Low Temp Foam Glue bonds instantly and works well for a quicker installation. I am building an O gauge layout and want to use your risers and inclines/declines. Will they work for O gauge? Yes, they will work for O gauge just fine. However, you will need to place them side-by-side to accommodate the width.
