"Then today we tried plaster coated newspaper strips. But we soon noted that the plaster set up very quickly and soon was globbing instead of coating. " as it thickens up take a paint brush and apply the thicker plaster to the spots that seem to be runny. Or try mixing the plaster a little thinner. I personnaly use extruded foam "blue or pink" and shape it then apply plaster coated newspaper. Works well and is strong! And is fairly light. If u still prefer cardboard strips then add a few 1x1 or 1x2 strips under certain parts. It sounds as though the plaster was just a little too runny. hope it helps Devin www.trainswinnipeg.com
