    Thanks Toto, I'm continually amazed at David's work and particularly how simple the design work on 'Paint' was and is!

    Apologies, I appear to have posted the message prior to this for a second time.

    Some time back I was posting about modelling Hereford in N Gauge.

    We were living in Ashton-under-Lyne and the modelling took place in the Vicarage loft. I am now retired with my wife still working.

    We have now moved to Telford and the powers that be have generously allocated a relatively large bedroom for the layout. Some compromises are inevitable as the space is smaller than the loft in the Vicarage in Ashton-under-Lyne.

    Staging has been built and my library is close to being sorted out. I will need one new fiddle yard, the electrics will need connecting board to board for the layout and some damage will need to be rectified.

    Completing the staging is a good step forward!

    I will post pictures over the next little while. ..

    A good use of space Roger....:thumbs:
    I have read recently about someone using the same idea with modules from Ikea.
    Unfortunately Ikea discontinued the particular module the fellow was using part way through his build, and so he has had to re-jig his plans.
    If you haven`t already done so, it might pay to secure all the modules you need in case Ikea decides to do the same thing again.

    Yes, gormo, I have the spares that I need! We use Ivar around the house for other furniture. In addition, you can cut the larger items down in size. It requires careful cutting to ensure that the ready drilled holes are tat the same height on each upright.

    That`s a good solution to protect your railway items Roger,
    I will keep that in mind for future reference......:thumbs:
