Afternoon all,JERRY,[quote]That sounds like a neat kit bash a salt mine from a Walthers elevator.....like to see some pictures when your done..[/quote] it's going to be a while before i'm done with the salt mine. Everything is packed up for the move. Probibly will be sometime late next year before I can start on a new layout.LEE,Would like to see some pictures of the salt mine there in Ohio. I will go in mapqust and look at the map of that area. Like to add my [2c]on the benchworks. I used 1X2 ribs 16"OC and 1/4 plywood. These set on 2X2 legs that I drilled a 5/16 hole in the bottom. I then inserted a socket nut in the hole and inserted a 5/16 X1 1/12 bolt to use for leveling the tables. Each bench was 4ft long X what ever width I needed for that bench. I then leveled the benches clamped them together and clamped them with 1/4 X 2 1/2 blots. Two bolts to each joint in the table. I had a 36 foot table with 4 pensulas that came out 4 ft. Makes a big layout. And it is sturdy enough for me to walk on with no problems.OH and I braced the legs with 1X2 in an A frame design.ryan posted: [quote]Whew!
