Reply to "Shaking down a new layout - best practices help requested"

Dave,

I mounted all of my terminal strips to a piece of plywood in one central location on the edge of the layout where I could get to them to pull, strip and connect wires. Don't forget to come up with some sort numbering system to identify where each wire segment starts from and terminates at. For example, you might designate a terminal strip TB-1, for terminal block one. Each terminal would have a number, I did mine top down, so the first terminal would be TB-1-1. The other end might be a track block number one. You will want to keep a record of all those wire segments. It will come in very handy for trouble shooting.
