Most Americans (especially the kids) have Friday 17th through Monday 20th off.
I was thinking Friday 17th deadline, then we can see all the fab work over the weekend instead of using the challenge as an excuse to blow-off the annual family trek through snow & traffic to great-aunt "I hate everyone" Muriel's.
But if people want to use the weekend, then Monday 20th is fine (heck, it's me b-day).
Or have an "rolling submission" from the 17th through the 20th.

Whatever works (as the king of procrastinators, I won't start thinking about beggining to start until early Feb anyway.  maybe;) )
Here comes 144 sq inches of love, baby!

Question (seriously): Detachable fiddle yards/catrages, go or no-go?

They dont matter, because the 144sqin is the layout portion, so the fiddle yards, cartridges dont count.

Has anyone actually done anything?

If not, here's a handy table I worked up to show various combinations:

12*12   144
14*10   140
8*18   144
6*24   144
4*36   144

All dimensions are inches . . . .

Well then, I'm in.  But I'm only aiming for 12th place, so keep that in mind.  And MC, you'll be in when your boxcab is complete!   :trollface:

See you in February, and may the 2nd best man win... ummm... 2nd place.  Yeah.  That.

I had a trackplan done before I even clicked "Post" when I joined in.  Now I've already cut a board and picked out my track.  Hopefully I'll be done before dinner...

 :P

(...though I didn't say which dinner.)
