    They polish up a treat and have enough mass to make pinning a joy!
    Here's one I made for my son; lousy blow up photo:

    So, Out of curiosity... How does one come by a section of RR track? I live in Hawaii, so it's not like we have much (if at all) laying around, except perhaps in Oahu.

    Any chunk of steel would do. I have a block app 4"x2"x1" that is pretty good, i also have a short section of track too, i haven't used it yet as my workshop is a bomb site, but the schoolroom I am building in half of it is pretty much finished so once I have got the carpet and blind out of the workshop I can finish organizing it and build a workbench.

    If you would like a spike or 2, PM me and we can put a couple in your hands.

    A better question is where do you find the little piece? These days that stuff typically comes in lengths of several hundred yards and is a formidable cross section of steel. It will laugh at your whimpy hacksaw and arm!
