I just glued a sheet of 1/8" plywood to the botton and added some 1/8" plywood 1x3s for a frame and 2 or 3 cross members.

The Blick studio wood panels look pretty nice. They look pricey up in the range of larger small layouts, especially with HO sized panels that may require expensive shipping. For those of us who have

Re: Anything new in Small Layouts?
Should work, but seems expensive. A 30"x30" panel is $56. A 5'x5' sheet of the same plywood is only $20 or so. Makes 2 30x30 panels at $10 each. The blocking and glue aren't much, but lets add another

Check out MasterpieceModules.com. We have mostly N scale T-trak modules, but they can be just the right size for any small layout in any gage. And they do custom size. David A. Petersen

Re: Anything new in Small Layouts?

Re: Anything new in Small Layouts?
I'm glad there's interest here in larger but still portable layouts. I.e., able to fit in a small truck or SUV and manageable to move in and out of the vehicle by one person using a good size hand
