The Atlantic and Southern Build, Part 1

[ACL1504]

This morning I cut more of the 3" supports from a 10' length of 1X2" solid PVC trim stock. Boy does it make a mess. You can see why I cut it outside on the backyard sidewalk!! Looks like a snow storm hit my compound miter saw! Is that a little dusting of snow on the grass?



This next photo is of the begining of the sixth level on the ovalix! Only three more to go after this one.



Thanks for following along. Don't be shy, let me know what you think!

Tom, aren't you worried about bumping into that Tortoise jutting into the center?  The layers are going up pretty quickly, nice work.

Jeff,

Thanks for stopping, looking and posting a comment, much appreciated.

No, there is plenty of room. The inside of the ovalix would be a great spot for a dispatcher! I have most of the ovalix pieces cut so it shouldn't be to long before it is finished, the ovalix that is!

It's all starting to make sense.  It took me a time to sort out the oval part of helix.  This is really cool.

Thanx

OK, i won't be shy!
Just another crazy old railroader runnin' around in circles and and pizzin' off his wife with the mess
in the yard!
But, somehow, he pulled it off and built an awesome helhicks.
Very unusal, but the Ledbetters are clappin' for him!!!

Bob,

It took me awhile to get it figured out as well. After a bit of time it all made sense!

Gman,

Not to worry, I know my babe so I made sure it was all cleaned up prior to her seeing it! I'm no dummy, well, most of the time I'm not!

Bob - I've seen it first hand and I'm still lost.      I wonder if Digitrax has a GPS plug in.  I'm afraid my trains going to go into this thing and I'll never see it again.

Gman,

Just remember, "The train goes round and round and it comes out here"! This should help a little.
