Thanks william1. I will do that and I could use your help anytime. M

William 1 posted:Hey newbie, for this older stuff you may want to post on the tinplate forum. The postwar experts mostly lurk there. Too much clutter on this one. How did you get on here anyway? This place has standards you know. Don't ask me what they are, but it sounds good anyway.
I knew it was you. (Giving him the brother in law treatment.)
And no, I can't fix it for you. Cheers.
Hey Bill I need more advice and assistance to build a small table. Maybe 6 x 6. Consider this an SOS.

You might want to start a thread in the "layout building" section under one of those subsections (building or electrical or scenery) and describe what it is you'd like to accomplish on it. It will definitely draw more attention as a stand alone build topic
