DXF Turnout Generator Generates a DXF CAD file for turnouts with the given parameters. 3 cases are recognized. Arc ends before Frog. Arc ends inside Frog. Arc ends behind Frog Cases 2 and 3 will define an arc which goes through or ends inside the frog and the tile layout is kept simple. For case 1 you can adjust some parameters for the tile layout and it should be understood as a suggestion. The generator does not check if a turnout is producable. Erroneous parameters will lead to erroneous results.
I do use LibreCAD for constructing. The whole lot here shall give a geometrical correct base for further constructing or designing a turnout. CODE200_M/P/R stands for CODE200 Tracks from Märklin/Peco/Regner. Data taken from I01, March 2011, Interessengemeinschaft Spur II e.V (Germany)
