Shaun Thanks for your input. I've been thinking about it and it might be cheaper too. then going out and blowing 50 bucks on a table. 4x4 ft modules seems like a nice overall size. I would myself make some module design changes myself but that only (...) (23 years ago, 26-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

(...) I have no problem with buying a table. I used to have a spare one - they are very handy things to have - but it got kinda "built-in" so it's not spare anymore. The only downside to people having and bringing tables is transportation. I have a (...) (23 years ago, 26-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)

I sat at the dinner table this evening and said DOH!!!...!!! While we briefly discussed a layout there is a major consideration that we kind of overlooked. We've assumed alot about what will be used as tables. Before we can plan a layout we have to (...) (23 years ago, 26-Apr-02, to lugnet.org.us.lucny)
