hey--you still out there?

Train Clown Guess what? I have not fallen off the face of the earth. I have completed the upper shelving with roadbed and track. Even got a train running yesterday. I will now begin taking some pictures and figure out how to upload them to you. I should be able to start on the...

Train Clown Thanks for your reply. I wil look for the radius posting. One other question. Do you recommend using homasote on top of the plywood? PS Do you eat beef up their in Canada?

Train Clown The room is painted and material ordered for the upper rail. Once that is done, we will be ready to begin benchwork. I will be sure to take pictures as the work progresses. Two questions: 1. In the helix design, do the clearances take into account cork roadbed? 2. Would it...

Train Clown As of Monday, 6/9, the plans have not arrived. I eagerly look in the mail each day and not here yet. Will let you know when they show up. Need to look at a map and see where you are in Canada.

Train Clown Hey--You still out there? I could use an update! Drywall is going up, electrical is roughed in, progress is being made

Train Clown In terms of power tools, I have access to anything I need. Beggars can't be choosers....patience I have!

Train Clown I'm still thinking custome benchwork given the need to probably build a portion of the benchwork with open stringers.

Train Clown I wouldn't mind if you plopped some roads in the layout design. Could always vary--but would be curious to see your thoughts. Will most likely sit to run trains. I have a 7 and 3 year old and want to make it easy for them. If possible, would like to see your plans for...

Train Clown You are awesome! It is like I have my own private layout designer. When can you start building it? hehehe Seriously, could you send the plans in the mail that have the additional detail?
