Preparing to Make Your Model

I will add to this post as I find different examples online that may be helpful to you.  If you are wanting to get a head start though, here are a couple of websites that may be a good place to begin.

PBS Nova - 'How to Create a Cave'  - click on the printable version if your flash doesn't work, and it shows you 4 different types of caves, and shows how they are created.  This is helpful info.
