Casting a stone wall.

[Sumpter250]

I am working on a church scene on my layout and would like to replicate a stone wall that would border the property. The wall must be of a New-England style and be somewhat decorative. Not just a pile of random rocks.

Matt,
Unless you intend to build a long, or completely encircling wall, or sell castings, that would justify the casting effort, you would be as well off to simply build the wall ( the master ) in place, and be done with it.

"Not just a pile of random rocks"...... Most "New England style" stone walls that I remember seeing, were, in fact, random rocks. They weren't "just piled", but arranged to produce a reasonably straight and level (although not too high) wall, that required no mortar to keep them in place. ( I tried that at the house where I once lived, in Lisbon Falls, Me., I learned very quickly that I did not know how to build a "New England style" stone wall! ). In most cases, the rocks in these walls came out of the community's tilled fields. When someone says "stone wall", that is what I think of first, especially if "New England" is part of the description.
Higher walls, or stone walls as part of a structure were build in much the same way, but mortared. there wasn't much stone cutting involved.
