Roads from Shingles

I am always impressed when I see a clever use of common (read cheap and easily obtainable) materials to make effective war-games terrain.  I just came across this great article by Architects of War on how to make roads from cheap asphalt roof shingles - very clever and they are very suitable for smaller scales in particular.  To the hardware store!
