After so much destruction we have finally started to put stuff together. Randy and Doug are busy applying a film to windows in the new club room that allows us to see out but makes it difficult to see in. It will also cut down on heat infiltration during hot afternoons. In addition to that, Vic, Gene, and Jerry started cutting and assembling new L girders. 3 sheets of plywood were cut up to provide almost 200 lineal feet of these L girders – it’s always nice to use new girders along the wall because that becomes the base for all vertical measurements used on the layout. We’ll finish those tomorrow and begin installing them according to the club consensus regarding layout height. We want it about the same as the old layout.

There was a grading crew working setting elevations around the room for L girders using Grinnell’s Laser, however, they worked so fast and efficiently that the photographer couldn’t document it. Thanks anyway guys.
