Hum, very tempted to get some of them myself to expand my home layout, they look like they are good quality and anything that is easy to put together I like very much!!!

And just seen in the latest RM that he has introduced curved boards too. Getting more tempting to order some for the planned extensions of my layout (subject to approval of the domestic authorities!).

My only problem is that they are "flat" and my layouts are never that! Does he do any "frame" ones for those of us who like the scenery to go above and below the tracks?!
