UPDATE #10b

this is a short video on what i have been up to the last few days & also some of the toys i got.
i was having a problem with my camera so, like a bone head i deleted all the videos i had stored in my camera including the first part of this video. the section that was deleted showed the roads taped off & ready for paint.
hope you enjoy the vid & your comments, question & subs are welcome

LAYOUT UPDATE #9b

this video shows tentative places for my industries. the track is not secure as of yet, still doing a bit of tweaking. over all the track is going down as per my drawing. one thing is for sure, no matter how much room you have, you always need more. I don't know why the camera kept going out of focus towards the end. I also mis named Phoenix as STP it actually is SFP Plastics. sorry these old eyes are going out...lol. enjoy the vid & as always your comments, questions & subs are welcome

UPDATE # 9 THE FRAME WORK!!!

 
first up the renovation of Atlas flooring that is now Flex Foam. still more work & detailing to do but, It is on the layout & can generate revenue...second, a shout out to DGLASS77 & DEFIANT47. both of these guys have some good stuff to watch, check them out...subscribe... finally we get to the update.. frame work. I have completed about 85% of the frame work in the second room. I ran out of materials & I didn't want to run out to get the lumber & hardware. tomorrow is another day. depending on how I feel I might do another update this weekend  so stay tuned

UPDATE #8..."THE TEST FIT" !!!!!

before I build the frame work, I first mark the floor as per my drawing. then I layout the track plan. this gives me the chance to make any mods to the frame work & I did. examples are, I narrowed the section where the 2 lumber yards are & also narrowed the IM yard. both sections where narrowed by 5". this gives me a wider aisle way. the section at n. Glendale was widened by 2" to accommodate the 5 industries that will be there. I can't believe I have used up all the track I had so far.
