thanks!

Tommorow I have to buy these wood borders for the straight lines of the track. I hope I'll find something cheap and eficient in bigger stores than the local one.

Then, I'll be able to start track building, I can't wait !

Try using some cut down metal coat hangers for your fence poles,they work great and are cheap. and not to far out of scale to my eye. I Drilled through the apron wall from the top to help support the fence.

Great idea, thanks. I was thinking using some grid I found (used to dry clothes), but your idea is better. I have to see if I can find this cheap in my aera (a lot of things are insanely expensive here).

For the installation, I was thinking the same !

Seriously great work so far! Those borders and fences are going to be excellent!

[TuscoTodd]

That is going to look awesome!
Love the updates! :D

Thanks !

I started painting the fences, they are drying in the attic. I'll make some pics tonight or tommorow morning.

Basically, I used some primer spray paint, and tommorow I'll make an extra coat with a foam roll, to give some texture to the walls.

I hope to finish them and maybe start installing the track before the end of the week.

Thanks

I'm still wondering if I'll use some banners on the artin walls, or keep them blank. If I choose to add them, I'll make them myself (I'm a former graphist) with label paper I have. ;)
