<P mce_keep="true">Thanks again, gentlemen, for all the tips and the links to the correct tools.</P> <P mce_keep="true">The cardboard tip is a great one, Mr. B. I will do that for sure as I have an incredible network of wiring because of the weird layout development.</P> <P mce_keep="true">Luckily I have all wiring running to terminal blocks. I will be writing and tagging all these wires for sure, as there are hundreds of connections to remake for the 30+ snap switches and to the several bus lines.</P> <P mce_keep="true">I am looking forward to getting this up to a height where I can actually get underneath it. During construction I placed the wired the first board into the room and then to the controller terminal strips at the side. Then brought in each board successively, tilted it up against the wall wire it, and then lay it down into place. Each has 6 to 8 swivel wheels to support me when I have to walk across it. Frankly, I'm amazed the thing has remained as stable and level as it has.... across the margins, especially. I have to crawl onto and stand on it regularly. I over built the wheel support underneath correctly I guess.</P>
