Ahead Of The Curve For Once

Didn't need either of these to realize how useful foam can be. Figured it out myself at Michael's after getting the idea of going there from a video which had no mention of foam. It was as if a light bulb went on in my head.

Unlike this reporter & the guy above, this poor fellow was chumped into paying as much as $11.99 (list, more likely $9.99) for 4 sq. ft. in 2 16"x18" sheets, which are a 1/4 inch thick. Michael's: $1.19 per each 1.5 sq. ft. sheet. They were even cheaper at the Joanne going out o' business sale. Joanne also made them in 9" x 12" sheets, some of which came w/a peel-off adhesive backing I've yet to try. May not be any good. The two mm. thick craft store sheets look much better on a layout, & the craft store sheets come in gray & black (& a mess of other colors) for all concrete or asphalt road, parking lot & industrial area needs, including grade crossings (2:08) above, as opposed to buying them as seen at (19:49).Again, kids, don't get chumped by Woodland Scenics simply because they market to you. Many of their products or an equivalent are available elsewhere & at a "more affordable price point" to use the latest redundant fucking bullshit term for lower price.

Six products & 13 mins. of video (does not include drying time) to make a few inches of road & a grade crossing.These & some Elmer's or two-sided tape are all I'll need.
