Jonathan, these buildings are fantastic! When I think about building mech bays, I always think how much more advanced the "Town" builders are when it comes to structure. I look up to folks like you when I build and I think to myself, "the more I (...) (19 years ago, 9-Nov-06, to lugnet.town)

I'm available for dinner too, and this Friday makes the most sense since the following weekend is the train show. All us train guys are going to be busy preparing for the show or loading in.
