@RSJB18 posted:Hi John- just read through your thread. Not sure what you are trying to achieve with the shelves. Are you planning to cut the framing back as well? if not then even if you can remove a section on top you still would have the same reach problem.

The framing is L-girder and the joists can remain while the baseboard could be removed allowing for better access to the back. At present the section is four foot wide. Removing a one foot section gives me a three foot reach instead of four foot. I do have a topside creeper which I am leary about working on for delicate work for extended time periods
so my hope is to cut down on reaching four feet to work on the layout
