Title: Introduction
Post by: Deland on February 29, 2016, 11:29:24 AM
 Hello, my name is Deland and I'm a hobby junkie. I have a lot of hobbies, many that crossover to the train hobby. I'm newish to trains not having had one for many years but have found a renewed interest in them due to needing something for winter. I do classic/modified cars/trucks, read, some woodworking(benchwork crossover),build an occasional car model (1:24) Collect die cast and collect tech manuals/textbooks. I'm seeing a lot of good info here. I currently have a 3/4 piece of ply on two sawhorses for a train table but am working on benchwork for a 7X9 space. I have doors and shared aisles to contend with along with the "zoning committee". I have a couple of trackplans that I like but haven't figured out how to post for critique. I get a download full error when I tried.

 OK, On all the other forums I visit I can download directly from my file. I just didn't know the protocol. I'll have to determine a host site and get set up.

Hunt is correct.

On this forum you need to use a facility such as Photobucket.


Cheers
