I'm trying to get info on this--it's a completely differnet display if we're
against the wall. Waiting to hear back. I think, thoguh, that we'll handle the
display well no matter if there's a wall or not. As long as we're near the
Meccano dudes again--that was awesome stuff!

6 8' tables and 80 feet of stanstions ordered. With the train layout and the 6
tables basically covers the perimeter.
Since I'm not bringing anything for the train layout (except the blue skirting
