  1. I saw this one a while back. He makes his hills with a mound effect on them though..and I don´t know how well they would store afterwards. Also...why does he use washing up liquid ??

  2. Paul: yes the additional elevation would impact on the way they sit in the trough, but I suppose its the storage conscious thought and design from the beginning that I thought was novel - normally I make stuff and then fret about how its 2inches too long to fit into the usual storage containers!

    Didn't see any mention of washing up liquid?

  3. Some good stuff there.
    Paul- The washing up liquid is to breakdown the skin tenion of water, in this case the water/ PVA mix. Just makes it easier to apply. Don't need much, just a drop or two.
