Hey all- couple of reasons for this post.......
1) To thank Mark C for the lampholders he sent me inside Rollerballs Centuar as they allowed me to finally light my WH20 mountains as they were always meant to be.......here they are now - thanks Mark , this WH20 is now 100% lit and 100% working correctly
2) In the above shot no-one would have notinced my 'cracked' mountain ....even when it is lit up.....
Heres where the crack is/was........I had concerns that light inside may now show up my 'repairs'.....
This mountain originally had a crack / split in it going 2/3 of the way up - what I did was to mix up some araldite that dries REAL solid and also very clear and I put a little bit of it in the crack using a toothpick to apply it but then I also slapped on a layer of it about 2mm thick inside the mountain so that it covered both sides of the split so I had an 'area' of glue that was about 15mm wide by about 30mm high x 2mm thick inside there , I held the mountain in my hand in such a way that the glue stayed where I needed it to stay until it dried enough to stay in shape......so it formed like an inner wall of glue......I did this months ago and it is still perfect.....heres a close up so you can see that you just cant see the glue in the light......now this AINT rocket science or anything special - sometimes people overlook simle ways of fixing things so I thought I would throw this idea up.
