Modeling topic
Bit by Bit . . .
Building by building, I'm almost finding creating the pulp and paper mill easier than when I previously tried to model an entire layout.

I currently don't have room for a layout, but am building the mill, piece by piece, and storing the individual projects until I can finally bring them together in one module.
