With Winter wearing on, and this injury keeping me off the mountain bike, we decided to have a little fun in the shop. This micro crawler course is built from boxes, plaster, paint, and a variety of fake plants and rocks from the hobby store. Build one of these yourself, and make your basement a lot more entertaining!

The micro crawler course sits atop two sawhorses from Lowes, and is made from one sheet of MDF. The course measures 4 feet by 6 feet, or 122cm by 183cm.

@muskokamike127 2 года назад

If you want to add light weight obstacles, a can of spray foam works wonders. Spray a blob here or there then use a bread knife to carve it. The beauty about spray foam is it is dense, and light (since it's mostly air). Use the high expansion gap filler type. you can carve ruts into it as well and then paint it up so it looks like mud. Using the water based liquid clear, you could even fill the ruts with glossy clear, when it dries it will look like water. Just thinking: if you wanted to make a winter section/snow, paint things in white, and off white and use gloss clear to make it slippery. If you wanted to make a "desert" section, you could use camo paint in tan, get some plastic cactus and it'd be gold jerry, GOLD. I am just getting into crawling and I might just make one of these. You could also just screw down your 'mountains" so you can rotate them, or move them around to change it up. When you're laying down the plaster, put down some old grocery bags first so it doesn't stick to your base. Pre-drill the plaster sheets though so they don't split when you put the screw in. Also use pan head screws so it doesn't crack your mountain. You could even use plastic washers to further protect your plaster work.

An old hobbyist trick for gluing landscaping in place is to dilute wood glue until it is watery and add a drop of dish soap to break the water tension. Put it in a spray bottle and saturate your aggregate and it will dry firmly in place with a dull finish. The nice thing is there a no toxic fumes.

You want to make yourself a really watery paint wash to brush all over the terrain you've made, the wash will mainly sit in the cracks and give you a more realistic sense of depth and contrast. Something like 1 part acrylic paint to 8 parts water should do it.
