@ Brendon - floors...Thanks for the comments folks.<br /><br />@ Brendon - floors were rarely left bare, which is why I plan to do "rushes" (which could be over a PVA/sand mix<br /><br />@ Paul O'G - the layering was very little to do with me, more the effect from how the roof is constructed in two parts<br /><br />@ Pendragon Without - I hadn't given much thought to what the floor would be like under the rushes. I might go with a chalk effect by painting/washing the PVA/sand mix Brendon suggested with an off-white colour<br /><br />@ Miles - the main problem is getting the fur to stick properly to the MDF. I think for future buildings done with thatch I'll use some spare MDF bases on the non-glue side to help clamp it flat. The trick I've found for getting the thatch look right is to "backcomb" the fur a bit before running 50% PVA through with a stiff brush.TamsinPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11759947520907448060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908829430234339181.post-20944598486758829612014-11-06T20:55:54.827+00:002014-11-06T20:55:54.827+00:00Very nicely done - I've struggled with the ted...Very nicely done - I've struggled with the teddy bear fur thatched roofs but you seem to have done yours superblyjmilesrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17961624317410579611noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908829430234339181.post-37354101080436120692014-11-06T07:04:59.771+00:002014-11-06T07:04:59.771+00:00The thatch is very nice it looks great.The thatch is very nice it looks great.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04802420094217299660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6908829430234339181.post-711418116697974442014-11-05T21:03:17.637+00:002014-11-05T21:03:17.637+00:00Nice build.
