20171203_142736Almost done. Need to screw down the OSB board on both the 4x8 train table and the 1x2 transformer table. The 4x8 sheet doesn't fit square which means my table may not be exactly square, but it should work. Drilled three 1/2" holes in the front for running wire, and have hooks to keep the transformer table a set distance from the train table. It should fit under the train table when not in use.

I also plan to put a 1x4 board around the back and sides with ~2.5" above the table to protect against derails. Also going to make holders for the LionChief remotes, a phone, and iPad along the front.

Looks great, but do yourself a favor and increase your wire access holes to 1” or 1 1/2”. You will be glad you did later when you expand.  Good work. 

Deuce;

That is some nice sturdy construction... looks like a good height for the kids. I agree with Ted - not sure if you are planning on having any non-command control switches, but if you want the controllers on the stand, those wires will fill up your current access holes pretty quickly.
