Space is 12m x 8m, with stairway access from below, so no doorways in walls to avoid, layout can go right around walls, with lobes into middle as desired.<br /><br />For possible layout spaces, you forgot under-house; when I was 16, my dad helped me build a very substantial concrete-lined pit with surrounding slab-on-ground under my parents' house. It was quite dry, had damp-proof liner and all, and quite temperature-stable for having hardboard walls around the outside. My layout sat on the slab on short legs, just high enough to let me reach underneath, which put the layout top at just below chest height. It was about 3.5m x 1.8m from memory, and the pit was half that size, with 1.9m head-height. The layout was a C-shape, and getting in and out was not difficult for a nimble teenager - wouldn't want to do it too much now though, 20 years has added weight and subtracted flexibility ;-)woodsworksnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3308436923321175757.post-2472857769965542672010-03-17T09:58:05.045+13:002010-03-17T09:58:05.045+13:00Just something - the floors in garages (unlike you...Just something - the floors in garages (unlike your very lucky) are made with just poured concrete i.e no proofing or anything, so the porosity is oticeable and there is this all pervading dampness in the air - niksil track may not rust but it gets very yucky and your lichen shrubberies may just start to grow on their own accord.<br />Shed realistically has to be lined - which by the by does head druff or amateur fettler and co want some N gauge modules off a layout? they're sitting in my shed getting damaged but I'm sad to take 'em to the tip... I think there's four each about 1m x.5 or something.... they have track and are scenicked...<br />I'm currently trying to do the Ceiling cavity i.e the four spare feet in the roof, with a loft ladder and crawlways to get from a to b. Lots of floorboards, sponge and carpet - and it gets me an area without intruding on the authorities' lebensraum.<br />Still many, many cons...<br />Tell me if you're interested in the boards you'll have to pick 'em up, although I could assist...muirnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3308436923321175757.post-41117891638782493822010-03-16T21:00:21.597+13:002010-03-16T21:00:21.597+13:00Im doing a shelve layout. 0.3 wide and 4. mtrs lon...Im doing a shelve layout. 0.3 wide and 4. mtrs long. The 4 mtrs is broken down to 2 mtr sections. 1 station 1 hilly with very tight curve in. Then another of the same size [0.3x4] is built just under that one. If one day I can then have both sides of a nice layout.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3308436923321175757.post-51077623711684400022010-03-16T14:41:10.066+13:002010-03-16T14:41:10.066+13:00With another little one on the way, any plans for ...With another little one on the way, any plans for the spare room have been 'Shelved'. pardon the pun.<br />I'm seriously looking at the wash house as an option.
