Hi Jason! Is it possible to obtain some detail construction information on the staging area and how you built the helices? I am guessing they are 48" diameter based on the scale used and measuring the areas and the curves located on the upper level but a few pointers and some details would really help in building this layout!
Thanks!

Jason, I really liked your design & detail! This layout is almost a mirror of the environment I can build my layout! Tally ho!
