David,
Thanks very much, sorry you had to pass on the bad news. Hopefully he¡¯s up and around soon. Just dropped him a get well note. Ian is a trooper. All those years of playing Santa makes him have to had to deal with just about everything I would imagine.
Jeff

Friends,
I have just had news that our Australian friend, Ian, is in hospital with a second TIA (mini-stroke). I'm sure that you will all join with me in wishing him well. He has been trooper all his life, never giving up.
Regards
David J Wynne, Dublin, Ireland

Ian,
Yes you don¡¯t want standard canvas ones, you want ¡°wood canvas¡±. While a well gessoed canvas is pretty hard, doubt it would work well for a module base!
The 30x40 would not work well as the tracks are on the 30cm dimension so it would be a very deep over the usual centerline module at 40cm deep.
Also you will have 310mm of track on 300mm wide module so you will end up with 1cm gap between the modules which may start to get big. The 12¡±x12¡± wood canvases work out to 305mm modules so only a 5mm gap between them (or like 3mm with a standard module).
Cheers,
Jeff

Hi Jeff, I did some local research for the Australian scene following your suggestion?and found these boards that might be suitable as the base for T-TRAK Modules: Prices are in Australian Dollars.
?
Product Code : DB1042 $10.00 Art Canvas, 30x40cm, 4cm
?
Artist Canvas Panel 3pk. 30 x 30 x 2.5cm. 1.7 Thickness, Product Code: DG1314 $20.00
My Choice (because of the materials):
Wood Artist Canvas, 40x30cm Product Code: DG857 $12.00?
[NOTE: ALL WOOD no canvas, "Wood Artist Canvas" is the brand name]
"100% Australian owned and operated, Cheap as Chips started in 1985 with a store in Morphett Vale South Australia and have since grown into a company with 40+ stores, creating local jobs in regional and metropolitan SA, VIC & NSW. You can see our?full list of stores and their locations?."
As well as ordering just about anything through their Online store. They have a good selection of Art canvas but the other packs don't fit within the standard T-TRAK Module range eg Oval, too wide, not wide enough.
