some progress on this ,not a real lot,they move slow at the start,
but once the main inde is there,move along a lot quicker,:rolleyes:
real hope that I,can get to Nic,this week,as I need to church window,frames,
I have started the stone wall,what I do is tint the plaster,takes a good day to dry,
but saves time on painting,just needs weathering,then once dry,brake it into,
long lengths ,then into shorter slabs of stone,;)

I have ordered and .5 and waiting on that one to arrive,:rolleyes:
I have been thinning it as well,and still,so hard to stray,would have to be 50/50,
it just drives me so mad,and how can you mix to the consistency of milk,when it looks,
like water,:confused:

try between 12 to 25 psi,don,t like making the old girl run to hard for to long,as they get a bit hot,so also run a fan on the compresses as well,;)
wwell some good news,my .5 showed up this morning so will give that a try new,build,:rolleyes:hoping it will work better,;)
or may have to think about using a different brand of paint,something is different about vallejo,I have noticed any way,:confused:
