Reply to "What did you do on your layout today?"

Put the layout back in its place to make room in the garage. 

I placed the buildings roughly where I want them to go.  Doing so I found I can't use all the buildings and features I want.  I also changed the siding to a single track instead of a double track. 

 I did determine that with the foam and plaster cloth installed, that the layout is too heavy for me to carry all the way up stairs and into the garage.  Most work will be done now while it is in place. 

I will be ordering the back drop tomorrow along with doing some more plaster cloth.  I will also be cutting the 2x4's that will hold up the track for my trestle.  They will be painted grey to look like concrete.

Tomorrows job is to finish the wheel bearings for the wife's van.   I also will be doing a brake job while at it.  

I started it tonight but I figured after 11pm, the neighbors didn't want to hear me trying to hammer out the axle on the suborn CV axle.   **** that Michigan salt they put on the roads in the winter!
