In this video, Kent Johnson shares techniques he uses to transform the stacks of flexible foam blocks into a more natural, gradually sloping mountainside on MRVP’s On30 Olympia Logging Co. display-style layout. You’ll see how to work with a handy hot wire cutting tool, and then put those pesky foam packing peanuts to good use on any layout!
Now I know how to fill in a difficult area in a corner that I have been working on – packing peanuts. Newspaper wads would have been too bulky. The videos are a good length for the fast-paced times we live in.
I look forward to your videos, but I think they could be longer. I get in to them and then they're over. I think the last two, Part 15 & 16, could have been one video only. I personally think the videos are way more helpful than magazine articles because you actually see how the work is performed. For a guy like me, that's invaluable. I'm glad I joined MRVP, but let's have longer videos.
Thanks for watching, Carlo. I'm glad to hear I've got a fan (other than my mother) who wouldn't mind watching me work for more than 10-15 minutes straight! Many MRVP viewers have indicated that they prefer quick-hitting episodes for easy viewing, but we also mix in a few longer running videos when there just isn't a logical break. –Kent
Hey Kent and MRVP Crew,
I really enjoy all your videos.
But like Carlo I as well would love to see longer videos, It seams like I always get right into to a video and than it is over and most of the time I need to wait another week. I hope one day you guys can get the videos out faster if possible. I still love the MR Mags, but the videos are much more helpful in my two current projects.
Thanks

Hey Kent,
You're stretching these videos out a bit, aren't you? It would have made more sense to have both part 15 and 16 together.
