Does anyone know if there has been a curved switch made where the outside curve is 18" radius and the inside is tighter (15")? I've got a Life-Like styrofoam layout and it would be nice to have a turnout on it.
I know Tyco seems to have made one, but I don't know what radius it is.

The curved switch Tyco, Atlas and others once offered was 18-22.
If you want 15-18 you might want to look at European lines like Peco, Fleishmann, etc. They may have something similar but not an exact drop in as their radii are metric not English.
If you want to make your own, FastTracks makes a jig to build 15-18 switches. I have a similar jig to build 18-24 switches.
