:rofl:Out of intrest if you are so remote why is there a super market next door :rofl:
i never would or could use the junk that i sell! :cool:

my mini-super is working on the old woolworth principle. buy as cheap as possible and sell with a modest profit.
apart from food most artikles we got are from far east.
most of the local low-wage workers hereabouts prefer to buy the cheap junk - and to buy it again, when they need it the next time.
people never learn!

and the remoteness defines itself from the distance to the next hobby- or toyshop, if i remember right.
and that still is 300 miles (toyshop) or next country (hobbyshop) or even next continent (trainsshop) :wits: :crying:

not many southamericans have other hobbies than hunting, fishing and barbequeing.
(well, apart from racing, drinking and forni...)

not entirely.
at the end the left side will stay as storage board for surplus trains. at the right i'll make a big mountain, to cover most of the curves.
at the left side, above the workbenches i plan do put flats to simulate a trainline going along the backbuildings of a big city.
but in the middle tables, i will need a total of 32 meters of background.
when i finish this background, i can put the trestle in front of it.
