Looking around for 2ft gauge turntables

Hello folks,
I thought I'd ask here if anyone knows of any turntables that would fit Edh6's freelance 2ft gauge pacifics (something that would fit in a british setting). The loco with tender from coupling to coupling is roughly 13.3 meters.
I have found three on the DLS that have the room and I am currently looking at but I was curious if anyone knows any other assets, be it on the DLS that I have missed or on a website somewhere.


The ones I currently have are the following:
turntable 2x24, slugmasher (kuid: 86661:28242)

NG24 57' turntable (iron), pencil42 (kuid2: 124060:32010:2)
NG24 A-Frame Turntable; 1 track, steamrodder (kuid2: 323305:100676:1)

I made two
kuid2:210518:10307:1 (16 ft diameter).
kuid2:210518:11254:1 (18 ft diameter).

A little too short for those locos but might work for smaller ones at the end of a branch line.

Do you happen to know the name of the asset? I've looked around and downloaded some turntables from there but I cannot find a 2ft gauge one on there, only 3ft.
 
<kuid:169585:39623> 2ft gauge turntable however having just looked it doesn't seem to be on Steve's site since it got updated.
 
What about 'Northlong turntable 2ft', <KUID2:316142:1099:1> made by Moojgoo on the Download Station?
Or '2ttable', <KUID2:58422:28110:1>, by whitepass?
Or 'Turntable A-Frame 2ft', <KUID:63290:38202> by Elvenor?
Or '2ttrack_track', <KUID:58422:38005>, by whitepass?
 
@Malc: Good know, I kept looking through just incase I was missing something obvious.

@Jordon: The Northlong turntable is also too short, but again, good for small workshop areas.

The other ones (kuid 58422:38005 is the track dep for "2ttable")certainly have the space, though after looking at them the overall design (the box and A-frame structure) feels to American to me. 2ttable also seems a tad large with its ground texture but thanks very much for the suggestions :)

How about this one? One of my very favorite turntables.



<kuid:458053:103797> Metric turntable by vincentrh. Replacing track is as easy as replacing the track's kuid in the turntable's config.txt. If you wanted to distribute it you would need to talk to Vincent of course.
 
I downloaded it and had a look and it certainly is a beautiful one, however it would seem as if the track on the actual turntable is part of the turntable model itself.

You did give me an idea when you brought up switching up the track kuid though. I have had for awhile skipper1945's "Branch line Turntable" (kuid2:116296:36665:1), the track is a bit wonky on it but its one of my favourites. While standard gauge certainly is a much greater miss than metric for 2ft rolling stock, I remembered about the replace asset/bulk option and I gave that a try...

It worked like a charm! Because the track is not modeled in on the actual turntable I could just swap it out like that, very quick and no config tinkering required.
 
This is actually a great guide for 2ft turntables. im rather a large fan of narrow gauge, but like you the only turntables i seem to have are ones that look very american.
now there is also a 2 foot turntable made for the Darjeeling Himalayan railway route, but im not sure if that is available to be downloaded any more, and even if the turntable worked in the first place!

The DHR one is just a scenery item but it is on the DLS as is all the DHR stuff now.
