I guess I am left without much choice as to waiting. I really don't think I
can start until I have the footprint of the tracks determined. I just was
eager to start construction ASAP so I can budget pieces for it. With the new

money and want to be able to plan for any large mountain purchases.

start building with. The intention, so far, is to have a flat top for catalogs
and flyers, approximately 11"x7".

I may end up deciding (depending on feedback over the next couple days) to just
make the mountain as I see fit, and let the layout get designed around it,
instead of the other way around. But I would rather start it with all the
info.
