I bought one table skirt to test on the layout. I think it will work. It ends up being the perfect length when I attach it under the felt on top of the table.
I also made a lighting rig for my Bilt EZ Lionel building. I used LED strip lights. These were supposed to be warm white. They are nowhere near as "warm" as the picture on the box, but they are not "daylight" either. I wish I could dim them a little. I have read that you can use a PWM dimmer, but I have heard mixed results.
