Looks really good, like how you've utilized the room, very nice job. Ive been doing something sort of similar the last 2yrs(during winter) with rec/bedroom thats 22x12'. F/P mantel sticks out 31"x72 wide(10" shelf on mantel), have frame work filling in long wall on that side. One short wall has 54" deep frame work. Other 2 walls have 16" shelf (long wall) & 6" shelf (short wall) Room for decent town (just starting) , 3yrds & 135' main in ho/dcc.

Very Cool nice job

[SonoGiacamo]

How wide are the shelves? I see some wide sections and some narrow sections.

[sacktuesday]

@SonoGiacamo

Hi Sono check out my recent update, it will show you how wide certain segments are. I wish I was able to have the entire basement for this hobby but I made a deal with my wife that I could only have a shelf layout. There is absolutely no more room to expand, and it was never suppose to be this big......

[AndreyCracker]

Looks very good.

[RyanSamuelBarry]

awesome layout!

[UnionPacificRules]

That looks great! I like how u did the connecting bridge! Looks cool!

[2009Buzza]

AWESOME 10 OUT OF 10 ITS AWESOME

[drewzdrew27]

i was going to do a shelf layout but decided not to, cause the bench-work was going to be to complicated for me to build.

[upsd402]

Can't wait to see it finished, I wish more people would do shelf layouts, keep up the great work.

[sacktuesday]

Thanks UPSD402
