Default Jim, you are one talented guy!

Heck of a set-up there. Love it! You do the paintings on the walls? They look fabulous.

Geez... moving would be a serious heart-ache and hassle. Thanks for sharing the pics!

Default Yes I painted the backdrops plus everything comes apart for example the big mountain ( made of foam)

..just lifts off. The latout comes apart in 3x8 ft sections and the wiring just unplugs. I made it to be movable.

One year to build the bench work lay the track and wire, one year on the back drop and scenery.

Default cool...

I guess that is a critical design element when doing these things... somehow I thought it looked more permanent than it apparently is. Great job!
