*Subject:* {S-Scale List} logs for track
I have been scanning some of the posts about prototype lines using
actual logs for track. I am not sure if I have seen that before or
not -- I think I have. With logging I can see the appeal as it was
a very homegrown "do whatever it takes" mindset. There won't be
any "discussions" of where that rivet really was or what color was
____. Just do it!
I am curious as to how turnouts were made with logs!
Some of the thoughts about building ____ posted here really
boggles my mind at times. You have already separated yourself from
the "pack" with a **considerable distance** by being an S Scaler.
Add to it the thoughts of making a very obscure functioning line
with log tracks. You must really like falling head first into a
challenge!
Thank You,
Bill Lane
