The Official F&SM Layout Thread! / 2020 FSM Pilgrimage
February 08, 2020, 02:39:14 PM

George has marked his calendar for June 27th, 2020 for this year's friends and fellow modelers F&SM Pilgrimage. For those unfamiliar, it gives us an opportunity to gather together in Peebiddy at the layout for a few hours of awe-inspiring inspiration, and then a lunch gathering in the area. For those of us traveling from afar we usually book the same hotel and catch a nice dinner that evening. We had about 20 people last year and it was a wonderful time.


He hopes to have the new Stromboli area ready for unveiling for us, with a couple of new tall buildings. We always try to set the date well ahead of time to give people a chance to mark their calendars and make arrangements. If you think you're interested, even tentatively, it's a good idea to message me just so that we can keep a list for updates and not leave anyone out. C'mon...June!

I've gone to the spray for stucco exclusively. It's quick, easy, neat, and sands nicely.  From my experience you might consider the following:
   1) Shake extremely well and shake frequently during application. The "grit" texture separates quickly from the carrier/solvent, resulting in runs.
   2) To further avoid runs, consider keeping the wall flat during spraying. If already assembled, place the building on its side and do one wall at a time.
