   Hi Brian,

Awesome, awesome! Great job on this, the use of bridges and retaining walls, etc... I love how we (L-gaugers) are getting more and more sophisticated about our layouts. Of course we all know that GMLTC has been sculpting layouts for ever and the really cool SCLTC sculpted layout from a couple years ago.

I was wondering if you can share with us the “how’s” and “where’s” of storing and transporting this super-module. The GPLR has a similar mountain (not as big, 2 modules) but we’re trying to figure out the best method to transport it and store it etc...

My biggest problem with large scluptured modules is not where to store them but having the room to build them. My LEGO room isn’t big enough for me to keep a few modules setup over a long period of time for building. So I have to limit my building to things that can be built in sections and them put together at shows.

For some reason my wife doesn’t understand that the dining room table would be a great place for me to do some large scale building, something about entertaining guest and such....oh well.

It is better to have a large flat surface for building on the big (...) (19 years ago, 3-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.org.us.indylug, FTX)
