A puzzle....whatisit

A maze.......

A mess.......

Potential firewood......

All of the above...........

Showing the Gilberts a little love.

I have mounted most of my engines on something.  Started using left-over pergo plastic flooring.  Ate up the saw blade on my De Walt miter saw. Switched to lattice, worked better but a lot of work.  Switched to plastic mineral/rock mounts.  Best option.  Cheap, drill a couple of holes for screws and your done. Radials only.




Different story for beams.  Had this left-over wood from stripping prime 2X4's length-wize and liked the grain.  



Nobodys perfect. .  I did these three at a time, three for the 7's, three for the elevens.  Clamped and drilled the holes. Saves time and mistakes.  Glued all using Gorilla wood glue.  Messed up and glued the wrong end.  Strong stuff, lifted the grain instead of breaking at the joint when I broke it apart and re-did.  Threaded 3/48's on the Gilbert mounts.  
 





Found a home.  Lone 7 with tool marks will get ran soon.
