What is the PointForm tool used for?
The PointForm tool is used to construct frog and switch points.
Do I need to purchase a PointForm tool in order to use the Fast Tracks Assembly Fixtures?
No. The use of a PointForm tool is totally optional. However using it will make it much easier to form the frog and switch points. We do include a PointForm tool with our track building kits.
What is the difference between a PointForm and a Frog Point Grinding Jig?
The Frog Point Grinding Jig was the first tool that we introduced for creating frog points. Since then we have introduced the PointForm tool which can be used to construct both frog and switch points. So for the most part the Frog Point Grinding Jig is obsolete for all switches except crossings.
What is the projected life span of the PointForm?
A single PointForm tools can be used to construct hundreds of points.
Can I use a belt sander to file the points using a PointForm tool?
While it is possible to use a belt sander, we do not recommend it as a power sander will prematurely wear out the tool. A hand file is recommended instead.
How heavy is a PointForm? What will it cost to have one shipped?
Each PointForm weighs about 1/2 pound. You can determine exact shipping costs by adding the items you want to order to the shopping cart.
Can you ship to countries outside of North America?
Yes. We can ship to most countries.
