Fluesheet's Shelf Layout

HI Matt,

Thanks for the comment on the ballast; I'm generally happy with it as well - I'm very happy with the look, though it remains difficult to wet.

You're right about the acryllic wax - it is Future (Future by Pledge is what it's called now). I learned about this application in the British model railroading magazine "Hornby's". I have some more comments on it, and ballasting thoughts in general, a few pages back (page 6 the way I have the forum set up).
