I've had some success and was able to save the file after deleting the 'sideview' layer.  I opened the file, deleted the layer and saved it with a new file name - no other operations at all.  I then tried a few more times and found LC crashed if I zoomed-all before saving the file with a new filename whether I deleted the layer or not.  LC also crashed if I started turning layers off and on.  Other times I was able to work from the original file without a problem.  I also don't have the problem dellus mentioned with dimensions.  So, weirdness...

I have had problems, read weird behaviour, in the past with layers when working with a large drawing, notably when I used a block that was created using something other than layer 0, accidentally drawing on layer 0, and/or moving entities between layers frequently.  I noted in this drawing you have entities on layer 0.  I don't know if that is what is the problem, but generally speaking I avoid layer 0 should for general drawing purposes.
