Railwaybob! I just started building my modules for my home layout.. I've been on your site several times.. I failed to read the part about the size of the boards... I went and picked up premium grade 1" x 4" to use for the frame, and am using 2" pink foam. I still have to dry fit and glue in the foam, but the frames for 2 of them are done. I was rather disappointed in myself after going back and reading that you used 1" x 5"'s or 1"x 6"s for your frame.. I've only got 3/4" inch below the braces to use clamps on. :curse: because I used 1" x 4" however, I still like them and think they're going to work fine.. I just now have to go and find the correct fittings to make my legs out of PVC. I'm hoping not to have to do any cross bracing if possible.. as It'll make it hard for me to use the underside of the layout as storage, which was one of they only reasons I got away with making my layout as big as it's going to be. (Had to make some concessions to the wife!) I was also planning on decking the bottom of the foam with 1/4" Luan so I would have something to attach tortis switches etc to the bottom.. But, didn't want to eat up any more room.. I guess I can cut 2 pieces and glue them to the underside of the foam and not loose any more room..
Thanks, Connor
