If you lend someone $20, and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.

You'd be surprised what you can get in the trunk of a Hyundai Sonata


36x80 door is home with 1" foam 2x8 sections (4) to make 2"


The only foam left in Fresno at HD


We begin tomorrow. Building a 1x4 frame and 2x3 legs. Morons told me they don't
have folding table legs, which the website shows.

I did the same thing with a 2006 Ford Focus.  I even moved the layout after built (with its legs off, of course) in the car.  Obviously, I won't want to do that once scenicked, though.  ;D

You probably don't want the folding table legs anyway.  I used them on my last HCD layout, and the layout was extremely shaky end to end.  Since my layout was placed against a wall on one end, it wasn't the end of the world.  The A&R layout, however, may not have that luxury, so I needed something more solid.  I built my legs out of 2"x2"s and 1"x2" braces.  Much better.  I believe that Dave Vollmer has said the same thing about the folding table legs under the Juniata Division.

Did you pick up some liquid nails for projects for that pink foam?

Only because of where you planned to put the tunnel openings.   ;)

Seeing the photos of a door being loaded into a car in the parking lot of a Home Depot are right out of an Ed K thread. ;D

Now show us the Christmas lights!
