    "O" scale scratchbuild-a little off topic

    Never got into the RC thing. Mine will be displayed in the living room if my wife can get over the size of the thing.:eek: This will take a while, so she's got time to learn to love it.

    industrial handrails

    Rock Walls for Fish Tank Project

    I seem to remember this method used on resin or plaster to make rough water. I can see where if you weren't carefull, it could end up looking like one of those old Star Trek sets (chicken wire+canvas+spray texture). Yours looks good, though.
