Very impress with our display &amp; with the other clubs&#8217; set up. With this setup, our club has a 4 table hill with multiple levels, a water fall, a few bridges, etc. &#8212; very nice to look at.<\/p>\n<p>Was tired when yesterday was done&#8230; long drive down, long drive back&#8230; got stuck in traffic on the way down, about 50 miles outside of Cincy&#8230; for about 30+ minutes. When I got to the Cinergy Center, couldn&#8217;t find where the display was&#8230; on the opposite side of the building from where I was told to walk.<\/p>\n<p>Set up went a lot faster. Our club is using folding tables that (1) weight about 1\/2 as much as the wooden tables, (2) don&#8217;t take any time at all to set up, (3) consistently the same height; don&#8217;t have to futz with lining everything up. We also set up the display a little differently; take a table, put down the skyscrapper bases, add in the road plates, detail the ground level, put the table in it&#8217;s proper place, finish adding the other segments of the skyscrapper, &amp; repeat the process till the display is complete.<\/p>\n<p>There was some difficulty squeezing one table in-between 2 other tables&#8230; off by just a little&#8230; had to take a bolt out from one of the wooden tables this display was joined next to.<\/p>\n\n<div class=\"twitter-share\"><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?via=brickbuildr\" class=\"twitter-share-button\">Tweet<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Took yesterday off to help our LEGO train club (COLTC) setup for NMRA &#8212; lots of LEGO people there!
