What a cracking idea, bet a corrugated fence looks good. I'll certainly be using the method.
Keep the tips coming.

My first attempt was with a cut up coke can but found that the foil containers from a Chinese take away was perfect.

Thanks for that tip
. Our Chinese food outlet uses plastic containers but our local supermarket uses the the thicker foil for its quiches. I have been throwing them in the recycling bin

Todays cheap build consists of one sheet of plasticard, coffee stirrers and some balsa. What will it be ?.
