  • Was about to cut up my 🌲 styrene sheet to make my roof and then... it hit me. I've got a new, much easier way to make HO scale corrugated iron!

      Thanks Paul. Yup, definitely much easier to do larger areas. Thumbs do get sore after a while though. Finished roof is shown in my most recent video. Cheers, Matt

    Funnily enough I had just watched your other video about this and thought why not just press foil down on a ready made corrigated sheet?
    Then I scrolled down the list of videos and hey presto, you'd done just that! 😁

      Yup, I'm going to use method #2 from now on. We all live and learn!

    Great technique. I’ve done this for several years now. Great cost savings but even the heavy duty foil is still a bit thin. You have to go up to a commercial grade for the thicker stuff. Cheers.

      Agreed. Got a source for your super-ultra-deluxe-heavy-duty tin foil? Was seeing rolls for upwards of $400!
