Making a Recreation

OK, well, for Social Studies

, I have to make a mini camp of Sobibor, a Nazi concentration camp. But that isn't the focus. My main question is how to do it. I was thinking of cutting out things in foamboard also using a large piece as a floor/base. So, tips/help? Also, what's a good solvent, plain old crazy glue?

Dude! Watch your abbreviations!

I'm unclear on what scale the model has to be, could you be more specific?

The scale, *sigh*, this is the shaky part. I'm not talking like something you can walk into, but I mean like, I can build out of material, stick it on a base, and litterally hold it in my palm. I guess just like a layout would be more like it, with some LED's for kicks. One good thing about being a techie in a world of n00bs, is that even LED's wow people.

Just find some kind of area that is secluded, like in the woods. Or you could use a park, or get permission and use the school (If its for a project, they may let you)

Err, the things not 'interactive', it's seriously just like a 3D blueprint. I was just wondering what's the best way to do this...

Foam FTW, even spray foam insulation would work good, I got a friend who uses that stuff for models.

All you need is a Xacto Knife, printer paper, and some scotch tape

EDIT: If you want fancy, color the cut pieces of paper to make walls, grass, etc. I'd build this on a small piece of paper or Poster-Board.
