Walking is the perfect way of moving if you want to see into the life of things. It is the one way of freedom. If you go to a place on anything but your own feet you are taken there too fast, and miss a thousand delicate joys that were waiting for you by the wayside. Elizabeth von Arnim

Train Layout

Ken has been doing more work on his train layout. At this stage of the bench work he is working with Homasote.
Homasote comes in panels like sheet rock and he cuts it to the shapes he wants. He has started putting it along the splines where the track will be and has then glued it down. He can only do a small amount at a time because he doesn't have any more clamps. As you can see he uses many clamps. The clamps hold it tightly in place while it dries. Ken not only uses the Homasote where the track will be but in other places as well. Lots more work to follow.
