Hi everybody,

Today I purchased a Large Woodland Scenics Rocky Ridge from my local hobby shop. I noticed the curve of the ridge, and it so happens to fit perfectly along the outside of a Lionel Fastrack O-36 curve. (I bet it would fit around any kind of curve from O-31 to O-36) When I saw how perfectly it fit, I wanted to put one on the inside of the curve as well. Woodland Scenics doesn't make a reversed Rocky Ridge, so does anyone know how to make a near - duplicate for the smaller, inside part of the curve?

Thanks,

David Silvestri

I would make it out of stacked foam sheets, and Woodland Scenics rock molds. Stack and glue foam sheets, carve to shape, cover in plaster soaked gauze, and add rock castings. Woodland Scenics makes everything you need, and has tutorials online. This has become my go-to way to make scenery. It’s easy and fun.

Seeing as how you went the easy route and purchased one already made you find these products interesting:

They are easy to cut to size.

He still gives a discount for OGR Forum members - pretty sure the code is OGRR.  If that code doesn't work just reach out and contact him.

Not everything.  They don't sell water...or do they?
