Edward G - Thanks for all your work on this. I loved the new design. Unfortunately, hubby said he preferred less curves and more straight runs, just an aesthetic preference. I preferred the curves, but I decided to let him win this one. Especially since the straight runs made it a lot easier to fit my sidings into the tight areas available.
See below for the final (?) design.
I could use some ideas about the two hatches on the right side. It seems odd to have two so close together. But I need access to the switches at the top of the screen, and I need access to the middle of the right loop. The hatches are designed with just scenery on top, no track, so it will be good in that I can work on the scenery elsewhere and just drop it in. But it seems like a lot of extra work to build two hatches in the bench. However, I don't think I can omit them, and I don't think one huge combined hatch would be structurally sound. Suggestions?
Thanks!
