No I dont have a track plane just swinging it as I go along I will have to tell you the size of the room tommrow I forgot I masered it when we first moved in to this house but forgot to write it down.What type of layout are you going for?Switching layout?,Industrial,what are your ideas?
The reason i ask is because i remember my previous train layouts were some-what dissapointing for me,cause i didn't have any track plans either.I ended up losing interest in what i had built and soon became dissatisfied and eventually disasembled the layout and threw it all away and sold off what i had left:oops: I became bitter toward myself and the Hobby and walked away from it.I still think about all the money i spent,and the time i put into building the layout,it still haunts me,but i look at it this way,ya live and learn from expierences like that.
I hope i'm not coming accross to strong,I just want to convey the importance of having some kind of track plan.
