I am building the Mt Washington and the foredecks are to be scribed
to look like a planked deck. I would like to add a black or white
line in the scribes to make the planks look real. Does anyone have a
good technique to add color to the scribe in the deck to make the
look real?

Thanks,

Richard

and steel rule,then staining ,the groove stands out yery dark ,you
could try on a scrap peace.also a brand new deck with black tar looks
different after a couple years use but thats up to choice hope this
is helpful
