  Re: Skirts for Tables at GATS
 
(...) Just to clarify: The only show where we were *required* to have flame-retardent skirting was the NMRA 'National' show. Our tables had a 1x3 (?) board running vertically as the outside edge, the velcro was hidden on the inside. It gave a nice (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.trains.org)
 
  Re: Skirts for Tables at GATS
 
(...) We were required to use fire retardant skirting at one of our (GMLTC) shows, but I don't think GATS specifically required it. It's not a bad idea to just go ahead and do it anyway, just in case:-) (...) We use velcro (and we thank the aliens (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.trains.org)

(...) Don't worry about it we thought it was a requirement but it was a non-issue. (...) I got some cheep fabric from a fabric store and my Mother-in-law put a couple hems on them. We attach them to tables with tacks. (...) I can't remember exactly (...) (23 years ago, 23-May-01, to lugnet.org.us.nclug, lugnet.trains.org)

  Re: Table Legs (was Re: Bridge & ideas (for GEMTS 2001))
 
1) We don't cover our tables with bricks (they are painted LEGO brick green), we use spring loaded clamps to hold the tables together (they're about a $1 a piece at Home Depot) 2)I always take a few pieces of cardboard with me to shim up the tables (...)

  Re: Table Legs (was Re: Bridge & ideas (for GEMTS 2001))
 
For the train clubs that use folding legs, I was wondering if you could answer the following: 1. If you don't have enough Lego bricks to cover the entire surface of the talbles, how do you hold the adjacent tables together? 2. Do you have a problem (...)

  Re: Table Legs (was Re: Bridge & ideas (for GEMTS 2001))
 
I agree that the folding legs are the way to go if you want to save space in transporting them and setting up. I used the "conventional" bolt on legs for a year and that was all I could take. I was tired of being the last group to leave the train (...) (23 years ago, 10-May-01, to lugnet.org.ca.nalug, lugnet.trains.org)
