3mm East Boldre- ballasting.

 Here are the tools to ensure the ballast stays in place.

Firstly the dry ballast is given a mist of water with a drop of washing up liquid.

Then, dilute PVA, again with a drop of washing up liquid, is applied using a cheap pvc pipette. I prefer the pipette rather than an eye dropper, for me it is more controllable.

Just the wait for it all to dry and the track can be cleaned and re-tested.
