Sandy Hills The new layout
Re: Sandy Hills The new layout
This Morning have finnished the hillside frame in the corner. I will be covering it with hardboard, card or anything I can find laying around the place. Than it will be covered with plaster of paris and few rocks. O and sheep. Yes, up here there are plenty of sheep. I think more than people. The frame is removable for maintenance of track. Also done the walls along the embankments

Very substantial Sandy, reckon it would take a 12 inch to the foot sheep.
Plaster of paris bandages make a good cover, bit messy though.

Its just made from old scrap timber I had laying around. It does look over the top but it was free.

Re: Sandy Hills The new layout
Looks just the job. How did you bend the timber to give that nice curve?

Re: Sandy Hills The new layout
If you can lift it off the layout, I assume you will do a lot of the finishing with it off the layout? As has been said plaster is messy stuff. It will look good once it's finished.
Re: Sandy Hills The new layout
The curve is a shaped piece of 10mm ply. Or do you mean the wall around the track bed. That is Hardboard glued and pinned to track bed 10mm Ply.

Yes I do plan to do most of the plaster in the shed. I am also going to try and produce some small rocky bits on the hillside. That is going to be a first for me, Never done that before. Iv got heater in shed so it is cosy down there.bulleidboy wrote: ↑Tue Feb 22, 2022 11:05 pm If you can lift it off the layout, I assume you will do a lot of the finishing with it off the layout?
