If you remove the spikes about three rails deep, you can simply slide the joiners on one rail, then after you drop the bridge in, slide the joiner back out. Did that make sense?

$20 vs $5........:confused: Ill make the $5 one work!

Im not sure, Ive been thinking of mounting it on a KW from Dennis Aust, but Im not sure. Ill let ya know. Ill see if they have any at the two hobby shops by me and send them to you if you want?

The instructions say that you can paint the stems first, and use it for a form of preservation.

Mine will stay removable. I think Ill just get a little of the sticky tack to use.

I have the parts still in a pile.

They are the cheapos. But I want to get one with a loader for in the back corner of my taconite plant scene. I have the cheapo grader and it was real easy to detail to look better as you have seen.

Thanks. Im still learning with the trees. Those pot toppers might be perfect because Ive never figured out that fur stuff.

That was the blurry one.

I can finally add one, even if I already posted it twice tonight. :mrgreen:

Here are some pics o them in a temporary spot on the layout drying. The glue is still white.

I have been working on some super trees, here are a few of them to represent fall birch trees. They are still wet in the pics, so they are still wet, and wrong colors. This isnt their final place either, just somewhere to dry.

hard to believe its a matchbox.

I have about 6-8 drying right now. I also have some reference pics out, but what Im finding is that the trees in the pics are pretty much solid shades of yellow or orange. The super trees are working out great so far now that Im actually doing it right.

Im thinking of getting one and cutting it down to a daycab.

This project is NOT going real well yet. I pulled out a nice looking tree and just went right in to start experimenting with this one, wasnt worried about doing it proper, just to get a feel for them. I painted it white, sprayed it with scenic cement (now I know why they suggest Matte Medium...

Let me say I have no Matte Medium, my purchases tonight made me flat broke. Whats new:v8: Is it a must before paint?

The trees came in today, and when I picked them up I realized that the "kit" that I got was simply a large box of weeds. I got some WS folliage (fine turf) in colors I want. Would paint work for preservation? And could I use watered down white glue to glue on the folliage?

WOW! Another large accomplishment over here! You guys are making me look bad. But Ive been able to get a few more posts in with all these congratulation threads going around.

Go to a craft store, find some accrylic paints in the color you want and use WS realistic water. It is great for calm water. Its priced decently also. I thats what Ive used. JUST MAKE SURE THE AREA ITS TO BE USED ON IS VERY LEVEL!wall1
