So how about some clues, like scale, room size, number of levels, color of the carpet. . .

Or maybe just start a thread on how mad your wife/girlfriend/significant other is.
I think most of us have understanding women around or our computers would be smashed to oblivion that we are even posting about such things. LOL

Well, to give some tips on what what U could do on construction,
Unless you are building it on a fixed position, I suggest U build a frame and make it mobile, U could move it around ( if U have enough space ) and work from every side of it, without stretching too much around, and could always move it around if U need soem structural repairs of the building. I built a metal framework for my 9 x 4.5' layout, and I don't regret it, cause I had to move it around the garage several times for maintenance purposes. I used 4 heavy duty nylon wheels on sleeves, and it really runs smooth.
Build your framework that after U set all your wirings, you can utilize the underbench as storage, U could fit some heavy duty rails and buy a set of file drawers, to fit in there and store all the boxes U have.
If your plans are for an 8 x 4 it won't hurt planning on a 8.5 x 4.5 board U could find that extra space helpful in future scenery building
I will post more tips when they come to my mind
Maybe they are not the best tips in the world, but I shared what I have
