Round One

Chronicling building my first Free-mo module in preparation for the Amherst Railway Society Railroad Hobby Show - January 24 & 25, 2015

I've started! For real!

Tonight's tasks were primarily organizational in nature, but I did get a few other things accomplished.

1. Located nearly all of the supplies and tools I'll need to build the module.
2. Started organizing DCC gear
3. Started organizing rolling stock
4. Set up sawhorses and placed the module top on it.
5. Drew the center line and placed track in approximate locations
6. Reviewed all of my structures and after several years in storage, several need repair
7. Started placing structures on the module top to get an idea of what will work
8. Glued one side to the module top
9. Repaired one structure

Goals for tomorrow:

1. Screw in first side
2. Cut out hole for UP5 on second side
3. Glue second side to top
4. Cut out end pieces
5. Fix one more structure
