I'm not saying you must go out and spend a fortune, but even doing scratchbuilding and using "found" items, you'll still need well more than the cost of a book to do anything... I think you're well advised to invest now in one book, even if it means delaying the start of building. You'll learn and do things the right way the first time (in the long run, saving beaucoup dinero)

You'll learn and do things the right way the first time (in the long run, saving beaucoup dinero) I want to spend the money on track and buildings, but we do have 1 book by atlas, however i don't know if my dad will pay for many books and my money is split between this and saving with a little going to a few other projects. what i'm trying to do is absorb off the fourm and save my lawnmowing money this summer, BUT i have a news flash! it's winter!!!!!!
