@walt rapp posted:Planning for 2021 Christmas Layout Memories
I've settled on a design and a scenery configuration. Building starts mid-November.
I still prefer pencil and paper over software. My paper is a grid where each block represents 2'x2'.
Lower Level track and scenery plan ( the red rectangle lower left will be a 4'x7' elevated plateau. In my drawings dotted lines are ramps.
I plan out everything.I absolutely LOVE the planning stage, more, I think, than building and running.

Walt,
That is an outstanding piece of planning and comprehensive design. Doing it with pencil and paper makes you think carefully about the best way to build the layout. In my opinion, it may even be easier than using software. Very nice!
