Looks GREAT. A few Puns thrown in makes for another great vlog and a good tip about the cheese cloth , I really enjoy watching you two LOL. I used to have friends like you that I always enjoyed being with but they have all passed away and I am left to my own devices. when you reach 78 your friends become just a great memory. God bless you guys....
Dear Dale and Karyn, practice make perfect! Looking great, love the hint from Karyn's sister. Think that cheesecloth is a great alternative as a small mesh reinforcement. funny, by the way, that reinforcement end on...
THANK YOU BOTH FOR YOUR EFFORT AND TIME THIS IS AN AWESOME GOOD VIDEO THANK YOU AGAIN I ENJOYED WATCHING IT AND YOU BOTH ARE TRUE CRAFTSMEN I WILL RECOMMEND THIS TO MY FRIENDS AND TRAIN CLUB. JUST AN AWESOME VIDEO CAN'T TELL YOU BOTH HOW GOOD IT IS . JIM KAMMERER OF PHILADELPHIA PA 👌
Looks AWESOME learning so much from this build and taking notes. Can't wait to see the mine finished and on. Have a great Sunday and see you Tuesday. GOD BLESS 🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖
Hi again. Sadly some has failed. Falling apart. Hum… why? How do we fix that? All upcoming stuff. Some great ideas from comments here. Looking forward to getting back on it. And finding better ways to do things. Soon!!!
I think you should carve an old 40s Ford into the cliffs like in the movie "Cars" or is it too late. Kinda seems like you've been sitn on these videos for some time now. Looks so cool, you sure know what you're doing with carving & colors. 👍🏻
That's beautiful!and I am glad you said waterproofing in the monologue. Those cracks would have functioned the same way as real crack in a mountain would have done. Water would have filled the crack then it would have frozen and expanded splitting the rock. In your case the mountain facade.
That looks Great! Bit of trivia for you, on the 1965 GT350 fastback, what does the 350 stand for. Hint, it is not horsepower, torque, displacement or any of that. It is the number of steps from Carol Shelby's desk to the shop door. Look it up on Jay Leno's Garage with two of the original builders of that car. You'll love it.
I would keep the look of the cracks, but maybe "fill" them with some sort of outdoor varnish to stop water getting in there. With the temperature variations you guys get frost will likely be the enemy if water gets in there.
That looks really good, having been through that area a couple of times and it looks convincing to my eye. The rubble at the bottom adds to the realistic look of the rock face. It's what you see in nature and in a quarry after blasting. By the way what foam cutter are you usin? Helpful hint, fine aircraft safety wire works good on a hot wire foam cutter.
While pink foam is great for indoors, maybe you should go with the old screen over a sealed wood frame method where the mortar will be like the plaster. Should stick great to a screen mesh much like they do with stucco on buildings.
Did you think about using push pins or paper clips to help attach the mortar to the foam (in addition to the urethane gorilla glue? In planned cracks are a good thing. You can use a urethane adhesive or even a silicon. You are so creative.
Well hail no problem. Freezing is a problem. Need a better solution there. Lots of cats in the area!! But the underside is either totally open or totally sealed. So no problem. I hope..
I'm interested in how you did all the coloring (especially since you can't stay inside the lines) I know there are powders to add to the concrete as you mix it up. But after it cures is a different process
I need to try those coloring powders. Next week show is on color in the rock what went right and what went wrong. Here’s a hint, a lot of things went wrong!! 😊

Cheesy scenery. Hum.. could be a new product line.
@@ToyManTelevision ?
Rock n Roll! .... or maybe Rock n 'Slump' 😂
Looking great!
Hi. Sent a message. Hum… anyway thanks!!
Dear Dale and Karyn, practice make perfect! Looking great, love the hint from Karyn's sister. Think that cheesecloth is a great alternative as a small mesh reinforcement. funny, by the way, that reinforcement end on...
So far the cheesecloth seems like a good idea. More ideas to test as soon as it warms up.
Great suggestion from Karyn’s sister
Lookin pretty🚂🚂🚂 rocky!
Rock on!! Sadly a small part has fallen apart…. Why??? Well the trick is figuring out how to make this work.
Cheesey episode!
Great vidio D&K, rock walls are looking good, love the color trees pic, very authentic. Thanks for the coffee...
Any time!
Looks rad 🚂🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks!!
This layout is lookin fantastic! These videos always inspire me to work on my own layout.
Thanks!!

Hi Jim! Glad you enjoyed it!! Thanks for sharing!
That is coming along nicely
Thanks!!
Great Sunday morning tutorial.
Thanks again!!!!
Looks AWESOME learning so much from this build and taking notes. Can't wait to see the mine finished and on.
Have a great Sunday and see you Tuesday.
GOD BLESS 🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖🚂💖
Thanks, you too! Next week color. And massive failure. Hum.. learning experience I guess.
Great job mortar can be different and difficult but it's doable looks nice 👍🙂
I like it
Looks rock solid.
Thx again
Rock on!
Another great video. Thank you.

Great job
Loving the progress! Looking fantastic! Somewhat resembles part of my area here near dinosaurland too.
Very cool! Been COLD over your way….

Cool idea!! Radiator Springs! Yup. Last September. And October. And December. But stringing together about 5 months of work.

Great point! And it did! A section has fallen. More on that…
A very interesting process! Interesting choice of materials. I know they use wire mesh to build artificial mountains for theme parks, etc
Old drop ceiling tiles could be used to make landscaping filler that can be used under the concrete as long as it is the type without asbestos.
Cool to see the Kearns Coal and Oil. That's my last name. I may have to do something like that on my layout.
Thanks
You are so welcome!!

Feet to the engine shop! 500 because it’s bigger that 350 and sounds impressive.
Dale, I will be very sad if you don't have a small industry on this layout called " Condor Manure."😆
Holly shirt! Yes!
Well that's one piece of plaster work kind of reminds me of Buddha but everything is looking good 👍👍
Sadly, part of this is falling apart. But I consider all of this experiment team and so I’m not at all alarmed and not at all unhappy.
I would keep the look of the cracks, but maybe "fill" them with some sort of outdoor varnish to stop water getting in there. With the temperature variations you guys get frost will likely be the enemy if water gets in there.
Yup. Already a problem. But I’m testing. I see it all as an experiment. Anyway we had a rock fall on the tracks!! Looks great! But not planned….
That looks really good, having been through that area a couple of times and it looks convincing to my eye. The rubble at the bottom adds to the realistic look of the rock face. It's what you see in nature and in a quarry after blasting.
By the way what foam cutter are you usin? Helpful hint, fine aircraft safety wire works good on a hot wire foam cutter.
Aircraft safety wire. Googling..
Okay.. that stuff! The white mustang has that keeping the rotors together.
Some problems have come up over the winter… next Sunday..
While pink foam is great for indoors, maybe you should go with the old screen over a sealed wood frame method where the mortar will be like the plaster. Should stick great to a screen mesh much like they do with stucco on buildings.
That works well. But hard to control. Hard to work with the wire.. but we shall see. Next week color. And a big failure v

Hi Ken! Oh boy. Watch next Sunday. Color. And problems…
@@ToyManTelevision You know I will! Can hardly wait. Like the color you added.
The piles at the bottom is “Fallin Rock”! Of course you have heard that story I am sure.
Well. No… don’t think so..
@@ToyManTelevision Awe come on now that’s not the sprit.
I have 2 questions... 1. How does this scenery hold up to hail storms? and 2. How do you keep rodents from making homes in the underside of the foam?
I was thinking the same thing
Hit cats.🐈
Well hail no problem. Freezing is a problem. Need a better solution there. Lots of cats in the area!! But the underside is either totally open or totally sealed. So no problem. I hope..
@@ToyManTelevision until you see all the little kittens coming out 😸
I'm interested in how you did all the coloring (especially since you can't stay inside the lines)
I know there are powders to add to the concrete as you mix it up.
But after it cures is a different process
I need to try those coloring powders. Next week show is on color in the rock what went right and what went wrong. Here’s a hint, a lot of things went wrong!! 😊
Where did you purchase the pink foam? Thank you.
Home Depot. $45 a sheet. Scored so you can break it into 2’ wide or 18” wide lengths. Or leave it 4x8. But we break it into 8’ by 2’ to transport.
When you paint that after it dry how come you don't put inside of the mortar mix before you apply it
Will be adding color to the mix from now on. I was afraid it would weaken the mortar but there’s a product for that!
A trick a modeling genius taught me is that SLOW IS FAST. Slow down and take you time he said.
Maybe you could shape one of the rocks to look like a gnome for your sister in law.
Almost like the mortar was designed to stick to cinderblock
Hum… think your onto something.
I love these videos, but I find the unnecessary wife commentary after every sentence very distracting and and annoying. Not trying to be harsh here.
Don’t agree
They sound like a couple cheesey radio DJ's in the morning.
OMG, they are having fun, screwing around as they say. I like it, it’s charming and says a lot of how in sync they are.
Please cover your track while throwing motermix all over it… 🚂🫣
It won’t hurt it the weather will do more damage than a little cement mix on the edge of a tie
It depends on what I’m doing. I tape it off for real messy stuff. But the mortar is manageable. For the most part.
