I’ve seen a few threads for the use of Scenics roadbed and I’m going to use the product, but for the incline sets they have even number slopes (2,3,4 %). I’ve got some grades which are a little different (ie. 1.6%) , are these easily altered or are adjustments necessary for the trackplan?
The risers cannot be modified because they are styrofoam and are very brittle, so you might need to either modify your track plan or use something besides the WS risers.

I would agree, don’t mess with these, youll have a mess
If its really essential to have this 1.6 % grade you could use the 2 % risers but have the base underneath the risers sloped to a -0.4%
But I agree it may be more trouble than its worth.
Or, use a riser of 1% and pack around the base of the riser to achieve the desired gradient.

Someone on the forum once said you can combine them to get other values. If you think about it, a 4% incline with a 3% incline turned the opposite way (a 3% decline) would be a net 1% grade (in the othr direction). The elevation changes might be tricky but it’s an interesting concept for those mathematically inclined (pun).
