Hi chaps and chapesses,
I'm pondering on how to make sheets for open wagons in 7mm. The load is meant to be empty chemical drums in an LNER pattern 13t high wagon. I've made a former out several pieces of rolled up paper so now I want to cover it with a tarp. I want something that will sag like the real thing and conform to the shape of the former so it gives an idea as to what the load is.
So before I start wasting my time experimenting and making a mess on the dining room table I thought I may as well ask if anyone's done this or has any ideas about how to do it.
Ta.
