Calum and I - Work on ancoring johns bridge so it does not sway.

I want to rework the entier interface such that John's bridge terminates

because we never get a chance to have the entire layout together in such a
way we can build and investigate each issue.

After seeing it wobbling together again at the show, I agree.
Although I'm not sure that the ends of the bridge need to be INSIDE the piers -
I think all my bridge needs is some vertical support at the piers.
At an early show using my bridge we supported the ends with simple support
columns and small turntables, and that seemed to work well.
