Finally getting around to building frame for my layout

[RobertInOntario]

Hi Rob,
I read your other thread, including the doorskin idea. I had mocked up a frame (like the Railway Bob frame), but made from doorskin. If you have some patience, you can engineer strength into the frame, rather than relying on the thicker lumber to be stronger. I am not sure that the weight savings were worth it - if I recall, you'd only be looking at a couple of pounds versus a frame made from dimensional pine. However, sometimes every ounce is worth it.
If you are interested, I'll sketch up som eplans for you.

Andrew,

Sure, I'd be interested to see these plans, if it's not too much trouble. Hopefully, whatever I build will be fairly simple to build and inexpensive.

Thanks,
Rob
