Cheers, what about ballast?

If you mean "will PVA stick ballst" - yep, no probs, best way is to lay the ballst, then mix a 50/50 PVA/water solution (add a drop of washing up liquid to break the surface tension) and then carefully soak the ballst.Matt wrote:Cheers, what about ballast?
It sets in 24 hours.
If you mean "what do I use for ballst" - that's going to really come down to the look that you're after.
Anything from commercial 7mm scale ballst, cork chippings, sand, sawdust etc all give good effects.

Sorry it's been such a long time, it's not easy to upload pics when photo websites are blocked.
Anyway, here's what I've been getting up to over the past 5 months or so.

)
