(...) Something that came up on the call is that for geometry reasons, if you want curved modules not to have overhanging track you need your track centers on multiples of 8 studs away from the module edge. So the outermost track should be at 8 (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I have seen people put the 12V center wheel from a 12V motor there. Not sure how they did it. If you do, you lose the outer cladding (which simulates the truck sideframe members, spring hangers and other stuff). (24 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

| | GFLTC Take on Modules...
|
|
With over 70 post with in the last 24 hours, most on the table and module design. I thought I would give the GFLTC take on display modules. We don’t just use tables, we cover them, making them cabinets. It make it easy to setup and operate at shows. (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

| | Legomodular standards
|

Watch this space. A conference call (sponsored by Mercator Software Inc.) was just held among GMLTC and BAYLTC and I believe we've reached a consensus on legomodular standards, for module size, and for the interface points. I don't want to (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.trains.org)

Perhaps my tables are a bit overkill for a tabletop Lego layout (actually, they definitely are) but they are not overkill for a legomodular layout where 70+ pounds of bricks are put on top of them in addition to the structures and rolling stock. (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

The PNLTC tables aren't too bad to make once you have the jig for the holes. I just have the guys at Home Depot cut the top wood for me (3/8 particle board for the NGLTC), their saw makes a much nicer cut the I can do on the driveway with my (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)

I have been envisioning a different idea. Start at, for example, 4 bricks + 1 plate at the audience side of the module. Run 1-2 main lines there. At the back of the module, run 1-2 main lines at an elevation of 22 bricks +1 plate. That leaves 18 (...) (24 years ago, 24-Mar-00, to lugnet.trains)
