But that means you cant do any small layout by leaving away some middle
sections, right? Or do you have some kind of big plates to be put under the
lower modules?
Are the points of giving track from one edge of a module to the next always the
same, or is it completely free, which means all modules have te be put together
in one fixed sequence anyway?

The idea brought forward so far is to have the modules at the high end of the set up to be built on adjustable table legs, where it can be continually raised up a few notches each time a new segment is added to from the low end.
