New layout design???

[jlcjrbal]

Well I am about to embark on a new layout, benchwork and all.
I have about a 12x7x6 area so I will do an extended L shape but I have plenty of space to do a few shelf levels above it as well as the chance to do a seiling line around my basement.

I am guessing that jus having one track go toeach level and branch out on the shleves possibley with a helix.

Anyway I just want to focus on the benchwork and first level now and go from there.

Go for it, I stood for ages thinking of what to do next, finally jumped in boots and all and I'm really going for it.

What scale are you modelling?

First plan.

Then plan.

And plan.

LOL I am just going nuts thinking about the levels I can do but I just need to relax and start with the basic benchwork. I am going to do my best and not do any foam, when I see the layouts with the wooden risers and such I just think it looks really nice.. Joseph

I dunno what you guys would call the board I've used, it's soft and one side is painted (we call it flameguard or pinex).
I just push my track pins thru the track and woodlands scenic bed and into the soft board, I've used the cookie cutter method with 9mm MDF board under the sub-bed raise it up and screw in place. If you make a boo-boo just pull the pins and start over.
Easy.
