Almost 80% of the benchwork is ready. The ones left to do are the curve sections.
I've also added the first 5/8" plywood roadbed.
I will use plywood roadbed on the stations and yards. The inclines and upper tracks will be spline roadbed.
Spline raw material made from1/4" MDF that I sawed into 1" strips.

Tracks and turnouts. I laid out some Peco turnouts to make sure the roadbed will fit the plan.

Laser cut sweep sticks for HOn3. These are invaluable!
I got these made by a friend in the US.

It might be possible to lay the first tracks this weekend.
