I was after roadside armco rather than racetack armco. Scaley stuff looks pretty good, but is double layer ie) racetrack style. Cheap solution, cut them in half. Two sections for the price of one.
Remounted on spruce risers with glue and pins then painted with cheap silver enamel spray paint.
Only trouble is, there's not a great deal of paints that stick permanently to the soft Scaley plastic. :(
In a couple of spots I wanted a longer run of armco in a single piece. Easy fix. Cut the end off, drill, pin and glue together. Works a treat.
