Why not use real slate and have the best appearance as opposed to a mimiced one. Locally (midlands) these area available at approx =A31 each inc vat for a 20" * 10" slate, approx coverage 20 to the m2. Priced example is for spanish slate at approx 80p plus Vat although good chinese are available at 1.20 plus.=20 Legin
Hi Legin.
My three reasons were: cost, weight, and my inexperience. Looks like I was wrong on cost, I thought they would be very expensive. As for experience (or lack of it), I guess artificial materials will be easier to work with. If I am wrong there too, could someone please tell me?
Thanks! DP
Thanks Dave, this is starting to look like the best option for me.

As regards working them where needed they can be cut with a pair of tinsnips etc. I dunno how you cut real slate.
