Hi folks, First, check out the latest layout diagram here: (URL) now integrates modules from Derek as well as spacer modules which will be filled by JeffE, Richard and Ben. The left spacer I will bring completely bare-JeffE and Richard, could you (...) (22 years ago, 16-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Ummm, presumably, the MINIMUM width is 32"... ie, the narrowest dimension we're forced to deal with. So I don't think putting 1x2s on all 4 side will work at all: 30.75" (width of module) + 2 x 0.75" (Thickness of 1x2) = 32.25" And then (...) (22 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Richard, Ben, here is what I propose: I'd like to use, say, 1/2 of the spacer nearest my layout. I'll bring a 48x48 gray plate and 3 green straight road plates to provide for the road and my buildings. My space will hold a car frame and tire (...)

(...) I meant maximium available width or maximum module width... But yeah, minimum width of the door would probably make more sense. (...) Actually the modules are 30.25", so without bolt heads is 31.75. Plus I left some margin in there. Calum (22 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Trust me...I don't intend to fail to bring my stuff. It's definitely going along with 2 modules, 3 buildings, and my rolling stock. Ben pretend I said a partridge in a peartree. (...) (22 years ago, 18-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

The minimum amount of space my chapel will take up is 32x64. But it’s good measure to add ten to each number so that it won’t look ‘sandwiched-in.’ So a good healthy size 42x74 would be great, but I'm always willing to compromise! I've also got a (...)

(...) Hey Ben, Are you using both modules, or just the one in the diagram? If you're using just the one, does that mean I don't have to bring the extra for the left side? Calum (22 years ago, 18-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Actually guys..... The way that calum designed his racking system it WILL fit with no problems... 30.75" (width of module) + 1 x 0.75" (Thickness of 1x2) = 31.5" + bolt head theckness...

Sorry for replying so late, but I was in the middle of a novel yesterday, and I am not feeling 100%. However, I'd still bring the extra one for Richard. I am bringing the 2nd one, just in case there is no room for my buildings and stuff. My city (...) (22 years ago, 19-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
