The turntable I designed is small and is only 5 inches in length and uses a Atlas straght track the same length. There are a several options as to the way you can build this turntable. Some of them are:
Print two TrackLeft pieces and don't add the railings or an arch for a possible On3 turntable.
Arches can have ladders and railings or not.
The Arduino sketch works great if you just use the switch but has some issues with the JMRI-CMRI side of things. I don't think it is my code but it could be. See the sketch document for more details. While I haven't tested it, the sketch likely will work for any turntable and stepper motor as long as you can get it to work with the Accelstepper library and know the stepsPerRevolution variable and it moves accuratly too.
