If necessary a box can be opened to facilitate access for interim work.<br /><br />cheers Phil Phil Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14268733501548280685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5216086753528465773.post-77848990743283391412017-04-20T18:51:13.162+10:002017-04-20T18:51:13.162+10:00Thanks Phil

As I have had to remove more track than originally contemplated, I have had to do a lot of rethinking at each stage/section is brought down. It has actually helped that I never contemplated scenery in the underneath sections including the staging yard all will remain barren even when the final move is completed.<br /><br />Where possible I have tried to keep the scenery intact, but as I have to do it by myself I have tried to be as careful as possible but there has been a bit more break off than hoped for, some large sections have come away clean which I can pack and re-use again, in some ways the better items have survived and they are mostly the newer bits as I changed my methods.<br /><br />The new home to be built will actually give me approx 200mm more each wall a 6.1 x 6.0m room as against the 5.9 x 5.9 existing, with some subtle changes being planned, I can readily adapt to a slightly new design as well.<br /><br />Key though will be how I can stack and store each base section, I am keeping all the bases with width 38x18mm sections intact, the narrowest will go on the floor and then stack each on top with increasing widths, and using the larger timber supports raise each level above each. The non scenery sections will be set against the walls rather than laying flat, there will be more than enough timber left intact for that process.<br /><br />We have to rent for around 8 months until the estate is ready to build on (end of this year) then house construction will start after trade holidays at Christmas, although there is hope that they may get the slab down prior to Christmas which will be great. In the meantime I will be looking at trying to work on some sections especially with some ideas with the track, to ensure its all laid properly and soldering droppers in place.<br /><br />Cheers<br />ColColin Husseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10166476334786660482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5216086753528465773.post-67234122692006137462017-04-19T23:31:18.930+10:002017-04-19T23:31:18.930+10:00Col,

Have you started to think about how the remaining modules will be transported to the new location. Without protection, there is a fair chance that additional damage may occur.<br /><br />good luck PhilPhil Whitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14268733501548280685noreply@blogger.com
