(Patent Pending) !!!!
Not having a small block of wood handy to press down my scale ballast into the pva, I grabbed the nearest item, an AA battery !Works a treat as a gravel roller.

The benefit is that the ballast doesn't stick to the smooth surface, unlike your finger.

That's probably why my ballast always looked like the North Sea - I need a flat roller ……………:cheers
