Hi folks,

First, check out the latest layout diagram here:

http://peach.mie.utoronto.ca/events/lego/lego-011902-layout.jpg

It 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 decide how to layout the module?  The
right spacer will be Ben's, again, you might want to discuss with JeffE and
Richard about what to do with the space.

A couple of notes:

-I measured the doors today at Lillian H Smith.  The max width is 32".  So
if you use 1x2 framing around the modules for racking, you should be just
okay.  JeffE suggested bolting an N shape.  Probably a good idea!

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 there's the bolt heads.  You'll have to leave two opposite
sides 1x2-free to get thru the door.

(...) 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 (23 years ago, 17-Jan-02, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)
