| Codyboys micro crawler course.
Ok, so I have aquired a couple Losi trekkers in the last couple weeks and desided to build a outdoor course to run them on. I did a little research on the net to find out how to build faux rocks. It isn't like we don't have rocks were I live, I just wanted to try making some to see if I can do it! What can I say, I'm 65, retired and STILL play with little cars!!!! So here is what I started with: So this is progress at the end of day one, 94 degrees, I need a cold one!!!! :beer: OK, I'm FAUX ROCKING now!! Recipe; plastic milk jugs, styrene foam sheats, spray foam, chicken wire, portland cement, vermiculite, peat moss and fine sand. |

The start of another day, looks like maybe another hot one!!! This is one of the corner anchor stones ( the biggest one on the whole course). Another day, another dollar, 96 degrees today, I think two beers would be in order!!! Just thought I would throw these in here, my 10th scale course. 14 pickup loads of rock and 25 yards of dirt.

| Re: Codyboys micro crawler course. Thanks, It will be a great place to play with my grand kids! I see we both live in Oakridge (Oak Ridge), but in opposite ends of the Country. Oregon and Tenn. Last edited by CODYBOY; 07-31-2014 at 10:44 PM. |

That's an awesome set-up! Hoping to move into a new house soon with some land so I can build a couple of courses for my rigs. Likely one for my Mini and then one for the Micro (my son's). Great Work! :thumbsup: |
