[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by der5997</i> <br /><br />Fergus' tip "I'm also planning on trying Dry wall on its side and layered to simulate Gypsum formations." also works well using old cieling tile torn into strips and stacked to form sedimentary rocks. If you are able to slant the stacks, or even wet and bend the individual strips before stacking,you can get some pretty neat rock wall effects. Fergus, will the two layers of paper covering the drywall be a problem with the effect you want? Is it the open pit at Lantz you have in mind? <br />[/quote] <br /> <br />Good questions both, I'm thinking of peeling the paper back. As far as location I'm thinking more towards Little Narrows, Up in the Bras D'or Lakes. Maybe some other location. Remember the MESS is Freelance, this way I can use some poetic licences. Unfortunately you can only compress so much on a 25 x 8 space. Cape Breton will be a sub I'll have to model in my later years once the kids are moved out and I can declare the Basement all mine. Just a matter of time (and Money).[:D]
