Yes the ballast is built up dry. A small dropper is used to apply the glue.

No.
Le Corbusier wrote:Also, what kind of Ballast do you use?
I use granite ballast on the basis that nothing looks more like granite ballast than granite ballast. I also use ballast intended for 2mm scale since that sold for 4mm scale is generally far too big, and more suited for 7mm scale.
