It's cheap, and I can just staple it down with an Arrow stapler. I fastened my track with small nails, and voila! it was done. Ballasting it did not make it louder, and everything has held up well. I have not had a chance to try any of the other methods, but will someday. Only in a small experimental area, though. If you are still trying to decide what to do then, I'll let you know. (don't wait around for me, though! could be 5 years!)[:I] Good luck on the construction. Just take it slow and easy, and it should go okay. Cork, when proprly ballasted, looks good.[8D][tup]
