what would be the best way to secure to track down to plywood for a tight radius circle
"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.
Post your non-O scale stuff here!

For the 3-rail track, screws are about the best way. Use a lot of them. For the 2-rail, wire nails should work.
Sorry Matt, forgot to add the "HO" in that question. I have some Atlas HO flex track that I need to put down on ply will be a little tight radius Ties are plastic and I have no idea as to what im doing with that small tie. I am an O gauge guy trying to help out someone with HO track. Any ideas or tricks would be most helpful and appreciated.
Atlas sells bags of nails for HO and N track, and the flex should have holes in every few ties for the nails. That's what I did for my N flex once upon a time.
Use the gargraves track screws they are better then the Atlas screws which the head strips very easily.
GarGraves screws are a little too big for the OP's HO flex track.

No holes in this track. Guess im going to have to drill very small holes and get some small Brads. Wow glad I'm using tubular on my layout, wish me luck.
