I got this done tonight for my sister, she wanted something simple and small for now. She wants to see if he really enjoys it or if he puts it down quickly.

It's Life Like track mounted on a piece of 3'X4' OSB board and some very thin carpet.

are you accepting applications for additional nephews? It's great that you and your sister are introducing a young man to one of the greatest hoobies on earth!

... From this picture I'd swear it was 1965 again!!!... The only thing missing is somebody wearing Cowboy & Indian pajamas running it. Classic layout for a first time slotter. He should have a blast on it. I imagine you probably... ahem... "had to" test it out for awhile too?? :lol: nd

Is your nephew's 1st layout still getting a good workout? Is he asking/planning/talking about expansion yet?
