Here is the scan of the Greenburg Flyer for those that would like to have a look. Please forgive the size of the file. I have several copies of this so if you want one let me know and I will save it for you. I will be getting one to TCS at some (...) (24 years ago, 5-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

You know I hear this fire proof stuff a lot from people here on LUGNET but have never been asked to provided fire proof skirts at any shows the NGLTC has done, Greenberg, GATS or even the NMRA shows. Maybe the fire standards are slacker in the south (...) (24 years ago, 4-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug, lugnet.trains.org)

Hello Eric, I recently asked the same question, just check out the replies to (URL) our (Northern Alberta LUG) first show, we were not required to use fire retardant material, so we used Walmart plastic table cloth. At $cdn1.99 each they were a (...) (24 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

| | Table #2: Answer to Shaun's question...
|
|
Well today was a good day in the table construction area. I got Table #2 done in under 2 hours. The Top of the table is simple, the bulk of the time is spent on the legs and drilling all the bolt holes so they line up. Here are pics of table #2 (...) (24 years ago, 3-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

(...) Watch out! Most shows will require that table skirts are fireproof, and further, that you be able to prove it to their satisfaction, (as in... they still have their original tagging on them). Cutting sheets will NOT work. You may get away with (...) (24 years ago, 2-Nov-00, to lugnet.org.us.nelug)

Can I ask a quick question? Is Layout Designer the same thing as Track Designer or Track Plan? I was sort of looking for something that would let me configure baseplates to get an idea how it would look. I haven't looked at the Track programs so I (...)

I have been fooling around with Layout Designer and came up with a sample layout. I don't expect this to be our layout for the show but it is to the size of what we plan to do so it gives you some idea of the space we have to work with. (URL) if we (...)

All of the bolt holes in all of the tables are going to line up so the bolts will actually be used to hold the tables together. You can't tell in (...)
