, well she turned and said to me why don't you combine both the tank and rock crawler course and use the whole garden as a course as long as I make it low maintenance .so here is the pics of the size I have to play with this should make a great course ?. Now the hard bit of thinking how to start and plan this without grass 
?, any ideas ?.
DEJA VU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
...Except with more photos 
....think I remember the ramp suggestion there before as well 
A suggestion Horses... figure out where you want your roads.... excavate a little and fill with fine mason rock.. the stuff they mix with cement ...to make sure it stays in place...get an industrial size gallon or so of elmers glue....mix it with a little dish soap... and water... treat the rock with this stuff ...let it dry out...it works pretty well... we used to use that mix for ballasting railroad tracks back in my club daysHorses45 wrote:Yep it's going to be good I hope just need to think what I could use for roads ? But me thinks looking at building a tank course thread will come in handy
,sounds like a good plan there You can do the mix in a bucket... just some light trench work in the garden...then just pour it in the trenches... they don't have to be deep ..not like cement... the plus is that the bed should remain relatively flexible when dry.... and also easy to maintain...unlike concrete pathways ...those are kind of brittle and really susceptible to cracking...This stuff isn't impervious... but if it does crack ...you just pour more elmers into itHorses45 wrote:Thanks for the tip alpha
that is going to be very cool , can't wait to see the photos dgsselkirk wrote:My wife and I have talked the same thing. I piqued her interest with talk of a small pond with fountain
...and of course a small scale river to fed it with a couple of bridges...
Very clever dgsellkirk.... nothing like the power of suggestion to get a battlefield made
