okay Step one. I got the size of the board needed.. simple enough.

So I started scrounging around the house, for bits and what-not, because this is supposed to be about making scenery for the everyman, not the bit collector or the man with a limitless budget...ah-ha! I found this styrofoam packing piece from a box something I bought months ago..

You know those cubes of soda? the one with two stories in the pack? there is cardboard in between the layers. Perfect scenery material. Time to cover the steyrofoam.

Now simple solid panels would look OKAY.....but we don't want okay..we want industrial. And being inside one of those type of plants myself...I know things break down. And when they do, they pull off a panel and start hacking at the machinery behind it..
Lets cut up the big solid panels into smaller angled ones.

Shonufficus approves.


Something about this Steyrofoam piece. There is a cool angled cut out of the one side. would be perfect little cut out for some piping..lets grab some straws!!

Glue some more screen down on the entire base, because, well, it's industrial..greasy grimy industrial. The straws are on the other side, drying...now to glue down the steyrofoam piece down on the fence/grate flooring..
