Nice going Jörg. With my previous layout (9 x 3m room) I tripped over a lot. Now with the very smaller room, I seem to trip less.

Golden rule. Don't let it stand around. Keep building!  :biggrin:

Some unplanned progress this weekend.  :thumb:
Was supposed to work, but various things happened on Friday that caused me not to receive all the parts to do the work I was supposed to do. Also I had not yet got the material for the sliding door.
So I rolled up my sleeves and did some work.
Marked out and cut some more track boards.

Did four of them, although there are only three in this photo.

Trying to work out the levels and heights of the various sections. One goes up, another down again.
Going to be a busy corner.  ;)

Note the read and brown wires hanging, I also started wiring the upper staging yard although no track has been laid there yet.
Somehow the heights don't want to work out, but not to worry I will figure it out.

To finish the weekend I took a fresh piece of ply and laid out and marked the one main station entrance.  :thumb:
Will try and cut this week sometime.
Had a few more ideas about other little problems with my design so all is good.
Was a enjoyable weekend for me.  8)

Received a parcel from Germany today.  ;D
Got the switches and servo's for the upper staging yard.
Started laying track tonight and discovered I forgot to order track screws.  :rant: :lamer:

Some great replies.  ;D
Well I was looking for something in my cupboard and guess what, I found a full box of track screws.  :thumb:
Track laying is underway.
Will try to update the current progress over the weekend with photo's.
