Reply to "Menards tubular track.. two years later. How do you like it?"

I purchased some 30" straights from Menards two years ago, in preparation for a new layout I was building.  I found the tie spacing disappointing.  The oil coating is a necessary evil and didn't bother me, and was easily wiped off.  The galvanized coating is rough, in my opinion.  Cutting the pieces to make custom lengths, which are inevitable, takes much care and a jig is highly recommended.  

I would only use this track on sidings for train storage.  I wound up selling two cases of straights and the buyer was not happy with it either, so I refunded his money.  Sometimes a bargain is not a bargain.  Since then I have been buying Lionel and K-Line tubular track from Ebay sellers.  As for the cost of shipping, I look for listings with reasonable shipping costs.
