200+ trees and several bushes later, I finally ran out of the original natural fiber furance filter. [8D] I came to the end of that 20" x 30" blue mat today. One filter yeilds SO much usable material!
If I really needed more, I can just pick it up at Walmart for $3.77. No big woop. But I don’t think thats going to happen.

Aggro - fess up man, how old are you?
Aren’t you a young’un? Howcome your layout looks so good?
And when are we going to see it in MR?
Seriously though - I enjoy seeing shots of your work. Very nice stuff.
200, eh? Not bad. I have about ten of your trees on my layout, and they are easily the best of the bunch. Since my layout will never be finished, I will use some of the time to replace the lesser trees with AGGROpines.
Okay, so…now what?
Nice looking trees Aggro!
We’ve got 160 (store bought) trees on our layout now and could use many more. I need some fall aspens.
I’m envious… Now I’m going to have to add about fifty more trees to my layout to make myself feel better.

Bwaa-HAAAH! Ran out, did you? I couldn’t find my blue mat for a week, when I decided to ‘grow’ some more firs. Found it under the layout. The cat dragged it under there and has been using it for a bed. Know what you mean about the number of trees you can get out of those puppies—I’ve done about forty so far, and am missing just a little corner out of the mat. Soon as I vacuum all the hairs out, I’ll start back on the Tahoe National Forest, but in the meantime, I’ve got one p***ed Tabbycat. I told her to go buy her own.

i [bow] to you who has done so much , so well , with so little !
[bow] [bow] [bow] [bow] [bow]
I’m with you, ereimer–if MR doesn’t discover this kid and do an article on him, maybe we’d better get up a petition, eh, what?
Tom [:p][:p]
Now maybe you can teach us all how to make deciduous trees [:)]
Twenty somthing.
I try. [:)]
When I get a good enough camera.
I would also like to know how to make such good looking trees.

Wouldn’t it BLOW YOUR MIND if I said I was only 6 years old!
[spongebob] HaHahahahahahahahah[/spongbob]
Aggro:
It blows my mind if you are 20 as well. Your layout looks really good. Please share your secrets with us all. Maybe a mini clinic where you talk about scenery? Just a suggestion.
That made me laugh. I actually heard SpongeBob laughing like that in my head when I read it. heh heh
Anyway, I was looking at the photo in your sig. and wondered (I apologize if this has been covered already) is that a really old loco on your layout? Or, do you excel at weathering as much as you do at scenery? I’ve seen that photo many times, but had never clicked on it. WOW! It looks like it’s at least a hundred years old. Nicely done!
