Reply to "3-Shelf/4-Level Around-the-Walls with Peninsula and Helix: Atlas-O, O72min."

Very nice!  I know that I've seen other write-ups that place the helix on a peninsula.  It might have been in this DVD, which I heartily recommend, BTW.

Personally the idea of having switches on the helix makes me uncomfortable.  I guess I would omit the third loop around the peninsula in the interest of reliability.  Also, I would try to lengthen the run-up to keep the grade below 3% in both directions. 

Of course doing this with wide radius (O72 or greater) takes a large room.  But the general configuration and benchwork make excellent use of the space.  More rectangular plans should probably be designed with a peninsula extending from the short wall.
