Matthew if you can fill a 2x3 or more block then that works.But what we are
now talking about are people builing on just one baseplate(for those who do
not wish to build more or can't build larger).If we can come up with a good
system we can take a couple of peoples buildings link them together to make
a single block(2x3 or 2x4 or whatever)then slap down some roads around
them.Weather we have the buildings hang over a stud still needs to be
decided upon.

I have my standard for my downtown but that is something else we need to
figure out also. Chris MichLTC/MichLUG
