Mike- At the GMLTC, we use about a 30 x45" table (= to exactly 6 large gray baseplates) with metal folding legs. Our newest tables flare out to give us more room (6" IIRC): ___...___ l l l l l l l l l l l____l____l____l____...____l____l l l l l l l (...)

I have given some thought to the tables as well. I think Ben's design is a winner! However, in planning some train layouts (never built) I have found (and others suggested to me) that 3 baseplates deep leaves a lot to be desired, especially if the (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)

Yep, that's my design. At a minimum, I suggest 30.25" x 60.5" for long linear runs. When I need extra depth, I stack them two deep. We (PNLTC) also have a few tables that are ~40" x ~80. The larger size gives you a pretty good amount of space for a (...) (25 years ago, 4-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)

I was going to be building several tables for my Lego collection in my hobby room and was wondering how I should go about it. I was originally going to make the tables 45"x45", since it was a good, large table. I happened to see the Modular train (...) (25 years ago, 3-Jun-99, to lugnet.trains)
