Didn't get a whole lot done today. Did a little work on the layout. The small gap in the newly placed six foot straight has been filled. It was precisely two inches. Just so happens I have a few of those laying around. So the mainline curve on the north end is now connected to the curve on the extension at the south end by a six foot, two inch straight stretch. I also connected a straight stretch of track to the other curve on the north end. I have to do some work on the south end of that shorter straight so it'll connect to a turnout just before the extension. Once that's done there'll be a complete circuit of track all the way around the layout.
In other news, a friend brought me an old Lobo disk drive. It's broke. He said if I can fix it it's mine. If not just chuck it in the trash or strip it for parts. IF I can fit it? If I can fix it! Maybe he don't know me so well as he thinks he does. IF I can fix it! That's like saying the sun doesn't rise in the east! Of course I can fix it, and I will. Not only that, it'll be able to read and write ProDOS, something the Lobo's couldn't do. If I can fix it. I almost feel insulted.
Well it's time to call it a night. See y'all tomorrow.
