Closed the side of the turntable with plastic stripes, the height is 31mm to have exactly lined out the tracks.
Segment turntable in 1:87 H0
The Pit was made from 5mm Polystyrol, the problem was at first the revolving stage was mounted or tested with any bearing and it was loosen to loosen. A Bearing was the riddles solution, the bearings inner diameter is 8mm and the outer is 22mm, for more support I glued with Epoxy a 10mm plywood peace at the other side to stabilize the whole idea.
With a stage reamer I drilled the hole and mounted the bearing, with the bearing the revolving stage is turning now very smooth and free of clearance and is prepared for the servo and ESU Switch Unit.

The ground plate for the pit was scratched to simulate concrete plates.
Next steps are to put some styrene strips for more detailing and after I will start to airbrush the stage with a primer.
Build will continue!
How to build a segment turntable for 1:87 Locomotives!
Next Project is to build a 1:87 (00/H0) segment turntable what is full functional for two tracks.
Scratch build the bridge with tracks for the locomotives. The tracks are wired for later connection to DCC Controller from Lenze.
