I'm about to do a mount on a 24 x24 pedestal and I want to make something like a small stream running through the scene, maybe 3-4 inches wide and about 2 inches or so deep... does anyone have any good methods for this??

A long strip of plexiglass, cut and sanded to preference, might work well. Use polytranspar to create the "ridges" on the surface of the water to give it that "flowing creek" look. Smiley

you can also place plastic wrap in the stream part, pour and brush in resin....wait till it sets like jelly, pull off the wrap,,,insert back in the stream part,,,then brush it with a thin coat of resin
