N scale trees by the bucket

Great job! When you dumped the rest, did you glue them down?

too bad they dont have something like that for O scale

Great idea i will be sur to try it.

I’m just starting, this idea will definately help me - I had planned
individual trees, which is quite exspensive, Thanks for the info.

Quik and easy and perfect for my soon to be Model railroad and i will post a video :slight_smile:

great idea

Al, well done and thanks for sharing your idea. I have just started model railroading and nearing the point of adding trees, etc. so reading about this idea is timely and one well worth adopting.

Great Job! I will try it

I’d like to try this in HO. Would you do anything differently?

Awesome tip and trick! Saves many hours of tedious tree building. Am planning on using this technique on my home layout. Now instead of needing around 5000 trees, I may be able to get away with as little as 1000! Thanks again.

This is Great help, I’m going to make a diorama next so this will be very helpful. Thank You Good Job!

This looks a great and very quick method to get yourself a whole forest of trees. Planting one with individual trees just doesn’t bear thinking about!

Great idea and presentation – a refinement of some previous forest techniques and simplier. Suitable for larger scales as well, with a little more prepartion of the edges and underlayment.

i am thinking of going this… DAVID BROWN i think you need to glue them down

I am in the planning stage. I will keep this in mind when it becomes more of a reality.

My MKL Lines is tinplate O. I’m going to try guaging it up.

Great Idea,
I am in the process of building a railroad now and this will be a great help.Thanks for the info.

Thanks,

This will help me a great deeal as I am modeling the PRR in HO scale and depicting western Pennsylvania in the summer.

Looks like a great technique! I’m considering some more lanscaping work on a portion of my layout & I’ll give this a try. Great tip!
