I've set the base benchwork height at 50", the minimum to clear the computer cabinet by an inch. Based on the timesaver, that puts railhead at about 55-1/2" or so.
Dilemma and Question: I don't want to use adjustable tracks and brackets to support the layout. I have used them with great success to support the layout & shelving for magazines at our previous house, but that was in the garage. Here inside I want to use something a little nicer looking, a little less 'storage closet' and a little more 'refined'.
I've been looking at floating shelves online, but these are often no deeper than 12-15". I'm thinking 18" for the timesaver/town segement, (it's currently 14", but I want to put some space between it and the backdrop...it is supposed to be a spit or peninsula into a river, afterall) and 24" for the town/mine section. Staging shelf will be 6" or so.
Ideas? Anyone built a floating shelf before? Keep in mind I want access to wiring. The only place this will be limited is above the computer cabinet, but it's on sliders.
Any help you can offer will be appreciated. Thanks.

I may not be a rivet counter, but I sure do like rivets!
