(...) We have that sort of carpet here at work. Another advantage is that you can keep some spare squares around in case something ruins a square or two. Since it looks like your floor is concrete, I'd make sure you get squares with quite a bit of (...) (12 years ago, 15-May-12, to lugnet.trains)

(...) As long as the end result is good, I'm all for clones and even for the mixing of clone brands, though I admit that I tend to be brand-pure in any given MOC (despite my usual "can't we all get along" stance on clones). I seem to recall a very (...) (12 years ago, 14-May-12, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.build, lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, lugnet.town, FTX)

(...) All good-natured snark aside, you have proven to be right in so many ways, Dave! I have become a total fan of clones, especially when they are produced by fans themselves.

(...) Steve- If you go with the commerical grade type carpet it really doesn't require anything to hold it down, and should lay flat without any stretching. Just lay it out and it will stay there. But if you do have some sliding problems, get some (...) (12 years ago, 10-May-12, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Another gorgeous clone brand! I love it! All good-natured snark aside, these really do produce a remarkably lovely scene. Terrific job on the trees themselves, and this new-colored foliage is a great addition to the palette!

Update... I painted (matched to the rest of the trim in the house) all the trim wood and my son and I started installing it (links below). It looks so cool, like part of the house! Of course one more trip around the rooms with nail filler and touch (...) (12 years ago, 9-May-12, to lugnet.trains)

Hi Matt / All, I am leaning on using the "commercial" style carpet with a very low loop mat. Unfortunately I know what you're talking about w.r.t. loosing pieces right in front of your eyes on the dirt hiding carpets! There is some reasonable cheep (...) (12 years ago, 9-May-12, to lugnet.trains)
