What about homosote? it would raise your roadbed, but give you more support.

Very Nice Shamus!! New model?

Very well done Casey!! looks like #18 has been in service for quite some time now!!:cool:

Very Nice Charlie!! Vic, want to send some my way?:D

Steve, I have used both, personally I like spray foam for rolling hills, gaps, etc.. It is different to work with, as Marty said, use a knife. Hot tools and rasps do not work well with spray foam, the hot tool will go very slow and wire will get coated, and a rasp tends to break the spray foam...

I use to work in construction, this is a very common practice as Catt said. I have seen it done 100's of times over the years. A good operator can do this in just a few minutes. BTW if you have ever seen dozer operators on steep slopes you will understand how crazy they have to be!!:eek:

I would also go that way. All of my structures are removable also. I have gone to mounting my structures on foam board bases which I scenic so that they don't look removable. in most cases you can not tell where the joint for the foam board is. (fences, road edges, etc usually hide it well.

Walt, I don't think your prices were too high, for the detail I thought your prices were very low. I think they are great (as you know I purchased a few;) ) I hope they start selling, I was looking forward to your next offerings.

I have to agree with Tom, Thanks for the kind words!

And I thought everyone was a NYC Fan!!:D Good morning Everyone!! Sorry I missed the blue note last night, Gsaltys and myself took in a movie and a nice evening out!

Good Morning Nelson and Everyone!! Today I have to clean :eek: So I'll take a cup of coffee and see everyone latter!!

I'll take a table for 2 for 9:00 also, but as far away as I can get from Mr Feedwater, since he gets awlfull loud after a few!!;)

Excellent Job!! I also like the second to the last one as my favorite

Thank you!! So how is your layout going? I haven't worked on mine in over a week!:eek: Hopefully I will get a chance this weekend!

Nice Job!! I have always covered my foam with plaster for rocks, now I will have to try your technic. I have tried the spray foam, worked well for hills and such but I personally found it hard to work with for ditch lines, etc., because it doesn't cut well with a hot knife, either that or I...

Ask away Tom, I enjoy the fun of answering questions as does a number of other great modelers here (don't worry I don't consider myself a great modeler, just average), Just check out Tyson's work or Mr Stillwater..Feedwater;) , or of course my idol Shamus.

My better half loves Trains, she goes to all the shows, helps with the layout and purchases me Loco's for presents.

Cool, Nelson is back up and running!!! Good Morning Everyone. Another busy day here. Hey Mr Backwater (oh I mean Stillwater, oh Feedwater), I can't read your text, the old eyes are not what they used to be.;)

Very nice Casey!! Now I will have to work on one this winter!!:cool:

Yes thank you Shamus!! I also will be looking forward to the possibility!!
