I think your dad doesnt nescasarilly think you cant build it he may be using that as an excuse. It might be he doesnt want you to have the trains take away from your school work or he doesnt want a table that big.

Is it in your bedroom?
Could you make it 4x8
also try and talk to your dad about what he thinks.
I also wanted to build a small layout in my room but my parents wont let me even though they know I will pay for it and if it is some thing big i can ask them to get and I pay them back.

It could just be the money

EDIT I didnt read the entire thread Im glad to hear you worked some thing ou with your dad

Yes Conrail,

It is in my bedroom, I have reduced it Down to 4x8, and I plan to use digitrax Zepher DCC in a box, and then change to walk around control.
To see the rest of my desicions, I will be posting a new topic today.

First of all, My dad was off and had had a very relaxing day, secondly I should have told him 4x8 instead of my original sign. I was mad so I put my parents name son their, to make my mother the good guy like she was and to make my dad the bad guy.

You were right Oklahoma Train Nut, I was not being the christian I am. Recently I told my dad another size 4x8. And he thought it was brilliant and agrred to help me. I will put in a 2x4 stud off one in to put my much wanted passenger terminal and add another to build a loop.

We decided to use DCC, after seeing waht It coulld do on the club layout. He wants to have a yard like the one on the club layout, 4x8. I have decided to model the chigago area because a number of railroads ran in chigago, to much to name now. Well, it all worked out, my dad is happy and quite frankly so am I.
