So I mocked up the support for Altenburg on Sunday. I've got a support grid which provides baseplate support every 16 studs; it seems to be quite sturdy. However, I'm not sure where to put the pillars - the turns are likely to suck up a lot of (...) (22 years ago, 29-Jul-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
