Just got my 19deg crossing jig and my first project is a crossing of a double track main on 2" centers. Can I build 2 crossings end to end as one piece? If so, what's the procedure for doing that. Obviously, the quicksticks would have to be modified in order to do this. Any suggestions?

In the HO/HOn30 layout I will be building ( one module at a time ), I discovered I would be encountering a similar problem. As I will be buying an HO double crossover fixture, I would be using that as a guide for keeping the correct track centres and butting the crossing jig up against the end of that. I'm not too sure on how well that will work, but I'm willing to try it.
