    Hi all,

    As a new member, I thought I would share my journey towards a new shlef layout in HO. My space is limited so I've decided that a shelf style layout will be best for me. I cut up a bunch of used wood and made a frame 8' x 2' shown below:

    This basic open frame is pretty stable and I also put some levelling feet on the up rights. Next I sized some plywood to create a bench top. I am going to use building foam as the base for the layout and hope to put up a photo or two of the next phase in a week or so.

    I hope this is the right forum area to post this, let me know if its not :scratchchin:

    Regards,
    Graeme

    Hi Greame,

    A good start. Looks solid enough from here. You would have been better sticking this in members personal layouts section but no worries. We should be able to move it for you that way it will be easier for other members to find.

    You carry on right here and leave the rest to us.

    It's great to see a layout rising out of the ground from baseboard up. I'll look forward to following your build.

    Cheers for now

    Toto

    Hi Graeme, you're better starting a thread under Members Personal Layouts.Have you decided on a name for the layout yet? That would then be a good title to start the thread.Looking good so far, any advice or help needed just shout up!:thumbs:
    Cheers

    Hi Greame,

    You will see from the forum section name at the side that I have moved your layout thread into members personal layouts section. You are now good to go.:thumbs:

    Thanks Toto,

    I didn't see that section when I was looking where to start.

    No worries,

    It takes a bit of getting used to and finding your way around. There is always usually a fix somewhere. :avatar:

    Great to see a new layout sprouting up.:thumbs:
