Its pretty cheap considering how much you get in a roll , maybe split it with a buddy if he or she lives close enough. It is HEAVY and it does cut okay with the proper tools and if it is kept warm . Being that each roll is 3' in width , one can easily make long winding seamless roads . Hope this idea helps out someone on this thread .
That looks GREAT!. With what did you cut the mineral paper?
I actually used a razor knife with both regular straight blades and hooked blades , lots of them and I also used an old pair of shears . I had made a template of my town and curved road leading into it using paper taped together , then traced it onto the roll roof using a colored marker . after cutting the roof material I placed one large roadway onto my O gauge layout .
