A piece of pressed board such as Masonite (TM brand name) would be good IF it has finished surface both sides. I usually see it rough one side. You would need a piece as long as your layout or almost as long-- 7 feet long, and maybe a foot tall to 16 or 18 inches tall. That board usually comes in 4x8' sheets. Sometimes you can get in 2x4' small sheets. I don't thinlk anybody carries 1x8 or 1x7 sheets. <br /> <br />Did you make your layout top from a 4x8 piece of plywood? Do you have a piece 8 feet long and a foot wide left over? <br /> <br />yes im going too take a 4x8 plywood and cut it too 4x7. im not sure what you mean by the wood thing. by a fence i mean that i want too fence of some of my track like in the real world. so like a chain link fence or something that is as small as n scale. would this be possible? thnx
