Cho Cho Wally posted:Thomas T. Good on ya' mate at 78. I'm getting close to 83 and am lucky to still be able to get up on my layout. Also with five hatches and the use of a three-step ladder with a top brace, I extend my reach to about 45". Also, Micromark has a neat helpful ladder with a belly pad to lean over with long feet to go under your benchwork. Solid. My friend has one. My table level is 39.5" with elevated tracks above that. Main table is 12' X 24' with an additional eight-track yard.
Good Luck;

G'day Cho Cho Wally,
If I had the room I would build a much bigger layout but very happy with what Dave has worked up for me and it will get me into this hobby with a neat layout. I plan to keep my table height down to 32" for easy access and viewing sitting down. I have a neat adjustable chair that I built for my shop and I will use it with the layout and it will adjust down to 6" and up to 35". Thanks for sharing.
