My mom isn’t exactly okay with me using half the basement, otherwise it’d be much bigger. One day I’ll have something much bigger, I’m sure!
Nothing wrong with a 12 x 8, I've lived with less.

True, but it's not as easy as sectional track if you want to make something quickly. Given the situation, the sectional track is a lot quicker to build something that you can reuse the track when you move. I suspect that Jake will be moving at some point not too many years from now, it would be nice to have track you could reuse.
FWIW, I'm using a lot of GarGraves Flex in my layout, but this sucker is going to be here until I'm on the dark side of the grass, I'm not doing this again.
