Da modules ! Da modules !
Sharing a few pics from the weekend's activities indexed by the last 4 numbers on the file name.
1022 - an overhead shot of the space available to fill with modules - a former Masonic Lodge meeting room.
0529 - 45 deg 8ft OS curve # 6 - need to glue in four more pieces and it will be ready for the waffle bottom.
A 45deg curved Speed-mo module can be seen in the upper right hand corner of this photo.
0418 - 45 deg 8ft OS curve # 5 - ready for the waffle bottom
0302 - 6ft Depressed center flat - on legs today - some cleanup to do in the trimming department
it's mate may be seen in the upper center of the overhead shot. Has a 45deg curved module top/bottom lying on top of it.
3427 - 45 deg 8ft OS curve # 4 - ready for the waffle bottom -- this one fully assembled in the RV !
Will get started this week on the last pair of 45deg curves required to complete the 360 degrees of curvature.
All for now

Speed-mo - a modular experiment
I am working on a Free-mo module which is an experiment Joe Balint, Jr - noted developer of the waffle-frame module - have been having conversations about.
Basically it is a Free-mo module that has been built as a waffle frame and has a track on the 15 location of the S&SSofNC template. So - it has four alignment pins and quick disconnects and will receive legs with casters to enable it's integration into a S&SSofNC layout . A removable 1 inch thick adapter plate will be applied to each end to allow connection to a Free-mo layout as well.
The trackplan and layout dimensional sketches is what I've developed thus far

S&SS of Kansas modules
5 of 6 modules in progress in Garden City KS. Initial plans are to build eight 45deg 8ft outside curved modules and ten 6ft straight modules.
