Catenary questions
Hello
I am beginning to build out Viessman catenary but have a question. I use Roco track with roadbed. Any recommendations on how to elevate the catenary masts a little bit or does it matter. I have tried searching and can not find any advice on this.

I use regular track on a 5mm thick cork-bedding. This combination is height wise the same as Roco track with bedding.
My masts are not from Viessmann, but the old style Marklin masts. Moreover, I have a couple of Viessmann tower masts with counterweight. I mounted all masts directly on the wood and have no problems with the height. There is no need to elevate the masts.

BR42 has good advise. There is no need to raise the masts. My track is on cork roadbed and the mast are just fine and so is the clearance.
