Room layout options
Attached are just 3 options I came up with for the table layout at the room.
The room measures 59 ft long by 25 ft deep. There are two doors on either end and a couple of columns in the room. I came up with 3 options A,B, C and will meet with John Wagenseil tomorrow to discuss further. You are welcome to let me know your opinion as to which option you think will serve the venue best, or propose your own for our consideration. Looks like we can get 13 tables measuring 30" x 8 ft and one round table at 72" for the Make and Take we can reduce the table count if needed. So far there are 10 of us displaying models. Isaac

B is the best for flowing traffic though the room, somewhat similar to the big room set up in Sterling, probably the easiest to set up.
I also like C, but I have one suggestion, if you want to have people mingle, and spend time looking at the models and engaging with the people behind the table, I would switch one of the horse shoes to the other side of the room, imagine two boots in a box, and how they lay in the box(best analogy I can come up with) Rick

Going great, Isaac! I will bring a variety....about 8 planes, a tank, cathedral, a ship, several buildings, and a couple of "in progress" items. And maybe a couple of other things from the "isle of mis-fit toys", which is the top of a cabinet in my work room!

That is fantastic and the glue too. I need it. I purchased 5 Aleene glue bottles for our meeting. I'll trade one for the UHU. Many thanks Isaac
