We describe an algorithm for constructing fractal molecular clouds that obeys prescribed mass and velocity scaling relations.The algorithm involves a random seed, so that many different realisations corresponding to the same fractal dimension and the same scaling relations can be generated. It first generates all the details of the density field, and then position the SPH particles, so that the same simulation can be repeated with different numbers of particles to explore convergence.
