Kon,  Great work on the new layout!  I especially like how you re-purposed the middle table into a round table.   On your custom turntable, did you consider using a circle of say O31 or O42 with a unused pair of trucks to support the turntable bridge?  I cant see in the videos/pics how the ends of the bridge is supported thru the 360 degree arc.

Thank you.  There’s actually part of the old Layout under the island area still lol. It was helpful for a shelve too. We really thaught everything out for operations with a turntable.

the rail idea I tried atlas and super hard to get every thing right. So I have saucer bearings on the middle and ends. The middle set rolls on a metal plate wire a power wire connected. I know it’s not super prototype stuff, but I think I have $200 into the whole thing that’s including a belt drive set up I am probably going to install.  Also a voltage regulator mite be In the future.  

I am probably going to do a video when I find time of the whole thing the way it is now..  

Right now the Motor is connected to a 8mm rod to a hub on the bridge. The under side has a 8mm bearing to keep it aligned and smooth
