SC3 Sculptamold 3 lb

This molding product is extremely easy to mix and use, and it sticks to darn near everything. I wear nitrile gloves to make clean up faster but the stuff washes up nicely with just water. I had to cover a circuit board that housed the blinker for my road crossing. I don't like to install such below the layout because my N scale trains run under the glass of my coffee table. The deck is 1 Styrofoam that I cut out. The board to be hidden still stuck up 1/2 so I built a low hill to hide the works and provide a location for the Miller Engineering DINER that I plan to build one day. (The power for the DINER is already at the blinker circuit.) I cut a large circle of very thin aluminum flashing that fit around the protruding circuit board and a smaller circle to be the plateau on the top and the roof over the circuits. I molded some rocks in a Scenic mold and glued them around the larger circle to form the cavity. The smaller circle fit on top of this wall of rocks to enclose the cavity. Another batch of thicker Sculptamold was then hand applied to blend the perimeter rocks together and to bond the two aluminum disks to the structure. When the Sculptamold sets up, I'll sand it to shape to represent a road up the hill to the diner's parking lot. Finally, I'll paint and flock the mountain to match the layout. The mountain lifts off to provide access to the circuit board and the wiring to the diner. An easy way to hide the behind the scenes magic and provide a new building site. I'll include a picture of the work in process.
