The 6-tracklength width of the tables is indeed a fundamental issue as it essentially determines the number of parallel lines without adding extra tables. Member Will Chapman used gargantuan 40x90inch tables for a few years before PNLTC formed. At (...) (25 years ago, 31-Aug-99, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) Thanks Lar. Glad you liked my buildings. And I wasn't trying to rub anyone else's nose in this. You've encountered a lot of bad press here in the newsgroups lately, and I just wanted to make it plain to anyone who hasn't met you personally (...)

Last time I talked to Selcuk, Lego prices in Turkey were pretty steep, so it might be cheaper to buy here and ship it, especially if we can get a discount. Another thing that should be checked into (sorry I don't have the time for it) - I wonder if (...) (25 years ago, 31-Aug-99, to lugnet.general)
