Does anyone own the set of 8 duckboards? Can I ask length and width of these duckboards? I'm picking some up in London.

Make your own, dead easy to do.... some paddlepop sticks (or coffee stirers I think they're called over there) and match sticks and painted (some great tips on painting in the current thread about painting wood) and Bob's your uncle, as to length and width I guessed and have attached some pics of the ones I did, might give you some idea, hope it helps.

Well, I am attempting my own using the materials you suggested but my wood is not looking that great despite the helpful advice. I will post them when they are done to show you how bad they REALLY are!

Keep at it though, part of the fun of dio making is that you learn as you go and gradually get better, don't give up!

Fine work there Wayne^&cool (as normal)
