    Hi Phil.

    If you get to Wakefield show 'll show you some Architrees Pines I imported from the Philipines, they are fantastic

    I've used about 400 on Shasta so far so I've til got about 600 left for future projects!

    having said that my sympathies go out to 'Treedad' and his family near Manilla if they have had the sort of the battering by the tropical storm we've seen on the news



    KEV

    I think I'm calling this done for now. I will shoot some video once everything has dries completely.

    Probably going on ebay, I will post the link in the appropriate section when I do.

    Nice, is that wood trim? How did you adhere it to the foam?

    Thanks Joe. It's just 6mm (1/4") ply cut into strips. The foam is coated with SBR primer and then the ply is bonded to it with silicone sealant, and with PVA at the mitres.

    :-D thanks James! Not sure about riches, but every little helps! I've put a starting price on this one, if it doesn't sell I won't be upset having not had much time to enjoy the finished item myself yet, but I just thought since Christmas is coming, someone might like it...

    Well the new owner is very pleased and just sent me this photo of the layout in its new perspex case, with a custom made building added. I think it looks great!!

    Phil,

    Would you please repost the photo because it can't be seen.

    Yours,
