Kenton Posted January 9, 2014 Share Posted January 9, 2014 Any chance of a little bit more info - for example is thatyellow stuff foam to raise the level of the baseboard so that it crosses between the two boxes? Also I'm not sure how useful that point is going to be starting at the rh end of the layout? And ... how did you join the two boxed? Oh and any chance of slightly wider pics they are a little small for my eyes. roundy-roundy in 2 APA boxes - not quite Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

cromptonnut Posted January 13, 2014 Share Posted January 13, 2014 Roundy roundy using APA boxes... interesting concept. I do like the APA boxes myself but struggle to get something worthwhile that I want in the space of one - although many people seem to be going for multiple boxes these days.
