I use Atlas code 80 flextrack and I am wondering if a fixture will be available for this along with the appropriate grinding jigs?

Yes! Our fixtures can be made to work with almost any rail type at no extra cost. If I do not currently have a sample of the rail you require on hand, I will request that you send me some samples of the rail, 3 or 4 pieces, about 3 or 4 inches long, preferably cut from different lengths of track, this way I can take measurements from a variety of samples to be sure of the "average" size.

Most rail is very consistent in size, but there are some manufacturers rail that will ultimately be unsuitable for use in a fixture, although this is pretty rare.

Once I have the sample measured it will be added to the drop down list of possible rail types on the ordering page for others to choose.

To date I have not done a fixture for Atlas code 80 rail, so I would need a sample. There is no extra charge to modify the fixture to work with your preferred type of rail.

The PointForm tools will work with a variety of rail sizes, for this type of rail you would need the 70-83-100 size.
