Maybe this El Capitan design is worthy...maybe it isn’t-- That’s for all of you to decide.

Hi James,

Well, I finaly got to order the last bricks and not to mention the split level train bases, and now I am getting ready to build the El Capitan.

I would like to hear from you if the is any chance of you getting the PDF file or CD ready some time. I really would like to build the set from such printed instructions ond not having to do a lot of “footwork” getting the instructions printed out from brickshelf.

I am really looking forward to building it

I was thinking that maybe it would make it easier for AFOL´s to find the bricks they need if there was a list of sets combined with bricks that you need to build the set, i. e. you would need 3*10022 + 2*10025 plus these bricks. Just an idea.

Best regards Thomas
