We all have those coffee stirrers in our scraps box, in this short video I put a few of them to good use.

@davidwilliams1060 11 месяцев назад

Thanks. For contest models some of us stain before gluing (and sometimes even before cutting) to avoid the seemingly inevitable glue masking.

Thank you John. Mere pence and very little time to construct and paint too. Win win. Paul

@altube57 3 года назад

Now here's a relatively simple technique that can be applied to so many different areas in a model railway. It's very effective, unique to your layout and you have the satisfaction of knowing that you built it yourself. Not only that, you just saved yourself 4 or 5 pounds on some plastic kit that can now be put towards your next loco or wagon! If necessary, a little gentle scraping with a sharp blade will remove that glue to get back to the raw wood. Very nicely done Paul!

@daviemaclean61 3 года назад

A man after my own heart! We get free coffee at work, therefore free coffee stirrers. I use them all over the place, glued together or cut up. You should try the vinegar and steel wool mix too - it's not particularly fragrant but gives a good aged timber look

@GalgormHall 3 года назад

Thanks Davie. Not sure I’ll do the vinegar treatment, I can’t stand the smell of it. 😂 Paul

@daviemaclean61 3 года назад

@@GalgormHall ;-) If you don't like the smell of vinegar then I definitely DON'T recommend mixing it with steel wool - it honks!

I have noticed the issue with the white glue but sometimes when scratchbuilding it can often be a challenge to find an adhesive that not only joins two materials but allows the painting and westhering👍

Hi from Garth Close

@GalgormHall 3 года назад

Hello from Galgorm Hall. 😉 Paul

@trainsontuesday 3 года назад

Good result Paul. We have a lorry that carries wood veneer shavings to a recycling plant close by and small pieces blow off along the country road nearby. They are less than half the thickness of those British coffee stirrers. They cut into excellent fence boards. Cut into scale 4' X 8' pieces, they make excellent sheets of plywood too. Regards, David.

@GalgormHall 3 года назад

I can just see you scouring the roadway for those shavings David, glancing up briefly to see the next train roll by. Paul

@trainsontuesday 3 года назад

@@GalgormHall You have created an almost perfect mental image of the truth in this comment Paul. The only error lies in the fact that the shavings are so numerous that "scouring" is not necessary, they lay around like blown leaves. David.

Nice one. I did something similar on my old layout but just built the frame for a sort of boundary fence. Had a few structural integrity issues! I'll keep this in mind and give it a go, I'm sure my local chain coffee shop won't miss a few stirrers. lol. Cheers, John.

Fantastic! Very informative . I will try this technique. I am wondering whether you have any problems with the wood warping from the water in the paints?

@GalgormHall 2 года назад

Thanks Dave. I haven’t had any issues with warping so far, perhaps because it’s such small sections I’ve worked with or the added bracing due to the design of the fence. Paul
