Guess I made the sections too light weight - not enough exercise lifting them :-)

You could attach a dremel motor tool, minus the motor, to a chain drive so that as you pedal you can grind, cut, etc. OR, your work light is powered off a belt-drive generator. OR, belt-drive a Unimat lathe. Lose weight while you model! How many calories can you burn while building a frog & a set of points?
LOL - sounds like a good plan to me! :-)

Aye, aye, Sir, will do.
This last week I have been working on the layout again. I've worked on the interfaces and alignment between the sections for the main city scene area, and drawing up on the foam where to put the tracks - tomorrow I will try to pick up a new tube of latex caulk so I can fasten down some WS foam as roadbed under the tracks before I pin down some tracks there.
I have also put together the deck and some pillars for a Rix highway bridge that will cross over layout at the right end of the warehouse district tracks, and form a boundary line between the warehouse district scene and the milling district scene.
Not huge progress, but finally some progress again, after a very long pause - yihaa!
Grin,
Stein
