American here… we have filler and call it filler. It can also go by spackle or spackling paste. Caulk tends to come in a long cylinder cardboard tube and is very thick and sticky. It is so thick it is applied with a ratcheting gun. What you have there isn’t like our caulk. It is very much like our filler or spackle. Caulk uses here are typically to seal window glass or seams in bathroom tiled walls and a tub. It is usually acrylic and silicone based. I love the idea of using “bird sand” that’s a quality pro-tip.

Great tip!

I’ve just picked up one of the battle mats from battlefront and they’re great if you don’t have the supplies and all that for making one yourself

When space is a limiter mats are definitely the way to go.

I use a hand pump garden pressure sprayer -£2 from Poundland. Clean it out by just blasting hot water through it and you’re good to go.

Maybe we were just unlucky, but we got through 3 different types, none of which worked well at all.

Very nice effect, getting anything to dry quickly in England over the last few months would have been a miracle! I'd love to have boards to play on, but storage means I'll stick with cloth mats for the foreseeable future - if that changes I'll be rewatching this for sure!

At least you don't have to worry about the glue drying before you are able to add the grit.

Looks cool. 🏜

Looks good! Can’t wait to see the Desert Campaign played on it. I had problems with spray bottles here in NZ too, ended up cutting the hose inside the bottle little shorter so it didn’t sit in the thicker part of the mixture and seemed to work ok

I think Luke also used Isopropyl alcohol and water to thin the pva and speed up drying time.

Great looking table, my friend! I enjoyed the video on it and appreciate that you were candid about the problems you had along the way. Keep up the great work!

I think the troubleshooting and problem based stuff is the most important information in these kind of videos. There are already loads of videos of beautiful finished products - but I find when I try and remake things there are always nags and issues - these are the real things a viewer needs to know to re-create a project. Thanks for watching Brother Methos.

War World Scenics Layering Glue in a spray bottle. No shrink. Just have to flush the bottle pump with hot water after use.

We had one of those, but it was a very small amount of spray per squeeze. Used one on the last board.

Awesome project.
