TOM,

  Made mine to look like a sandlot field that I grew up on I think the total is about 2 ft by 2 ft?

I'll measure and post tonite along with pics.  I used the artista winning and losing benches for my players along with some pallets for a backstop, and rocks for bases.  I then used 150 grit sand paper and glued that down along with sprinkling the green grass over top of the sandpaper.  Cost for the players was about $50.00

I know that several of you have baseball fields on your layouts. What size have you made them. At 90 feet between base, it would be about 2 feet scale. That takes alot of space, so have any of you reduced it and by how much.
