Thanks for that Norm. It certainly shows up well on some of the ground level shots. It's the kind of thing I would be looking to use with my 10mm and 6mm stuff.

I am now the proud owner of 32, 30cm sq pieces of 6mm MDF, which will now for the basis of my hills project. Once I get all my outstanding basic done of course.

This strikes me of having an element of 'how long is a piece of string?' about it.

In my case somewhere between 12 and 24mm (2 to 4 layers).

Yeah .... Wiki .... what do they know?

everyone knows it's more like 12 - 24mm, with some flattish bits so things don't slide down and a smattering of flocky / sandy type stuff.

next thing you know, Wiki will be saying they are made from rock, well if that's true, what's the point of polystyrene and insulation board? :D

No point. The driving force behind the development of metallurgy is that soft materials (such as copper, not to mention polystyrene) won't keep a point or an edge long enough to be useful.

That is a very appropriate collective noun for Labradors ;) :)
