Looks like many table modules are based on Ben Fleskes' design over at PNLTC,
and NELUG has adapted it. Surely, we won't start building without plans to
work from, and I don't think anybody has started their tables yet at LUCNY, but
good point John's Mom.
There's plenty of drawings and static design stuff at www.pnltc.org. The table
top sizes are different than NELUG, but still compatable if you wanted to blend
PNLTC sizes with NELUG. I'd prefer the NELUG sizes because we're adjoining
(geographically and membership-wise) clubs. For example, Shaun's expressed
interest in our group since he has CNY roots, and he's active in NELUG. What
if there's an Albany Greenburg show that we want to combine layouts at in the
future, or Springfield, MA, etc. Just a thought.
I think there's been a few postings of LTC modifications of tables out there,
but most are cosmetic and deal with leg folding and attaching crowd guards,
etc. The table top dimension is the real crux, as leg height is more easily
modified. However, I'll stick with NELUGs and PNLTCs height.
