I often wonder if I wouldn't find as much satisfaction in such projects than constructing a large layout with the feeling that it may never get finished. Than there is also the possibility that I may switch gauges half way through.
It was built over a year's time; maybe a few months more than that... It's certainly not something that I worked on every night or weekend. I've stayed away from large projects like that for quite awhile now since the last one I did took over my entire shop and towards the latter 20-25% just turned into work to the point being that I did not even want to face going into my shop.
I do have plans for another project of such magnitude, but minus the interior. I'm just working these days on lots of "little" projects to (1) get them done and (2) to reclaim the workspace that they currently occupy.
I hope to eventually have plywood on the walls so I can mount some benches for my projects. It would be nice to go out and work on any one thing with out moving 20 things first.
