…......................................... .--- Finish Hidden Staging Pt. 1 ---
============================================
Got sidetracked for a couple months building and helping with the WiTcontroller WiFi wireless $50 throttle ( HERE ) and some other train projects. So time to get back to laying track. Here and on the next two pages I'll document laying the rest of the track in the 'hidden staging' area.
.
More on how I lay cork and track in the build ( HERE), ( HERE ) and ( HERE ).

Using my screw gun I backed out the screws above and removed the bracket shown above. The whole layout is held 3 inches above the main bench-work by risers. The 3 inches gives you room to mount almost any thing you need under the layout easily anywhere you want to as it just takes a couple minutes to move a riser if it is in the way. Info on building the layout using risers is further back in the build ( HERE ). If you are considering building or adding onto a layout give them serious consideration.
Info on building the layout creeper ( HERE ).

More info ( HERE ) on how you can have servo control to throw your turnouts for about $10 per turnout. The $10 covers the servo, limit switch for frog polarity, servo bracket, control box with toggle switch and LED route indicators and the servo controller that lets you control how far the throwbar/points is thrown. Now computer or Arduino needed for this.
Part 2 next....
