Let's move another gaming related woodworking project into the finished column as the storage cabinet is done and installed in my "terrain workshop".
What? You are unfamiliar with the now standard residential housing feature of a terrain workshop? Well then sit back and I'll tell you the tale.......
In the basement of our house are these 2 doors which open up into a 8ft x 8ft bump out space that is directly below the breakfast nook of our kitchen. For reasons that I can not remember, it never got finished like the rest of the basement and has always been a bit of a hobby space for me.
My lovely, yet fierce wife approves of me using this space as she can close the doors and not be reminded of the mess. At least I hope it's the mess and not me.
Upon opening the doors, you are greeted on the right side with the new cabinet. The blue backgrounds and leftover scenery on the shelfs are evidence that this room once held a small HO-Scale train layout.
On the left side of the room is my trusty terrain making workbench and scenic supplies. It's a mess.
By the way, that workbench was my very first woodworking project and was built when we first bought the house way back in 1997! It has served in many different hobby campaigns over the years.
Speaking of messes, we now move on the disaster of the middle space - it's not normally this bad as I had to move some things to make room for the cabinet. OK, that was a lie - it's always this bad and I desperately need to reorganize this space - hence the need for a storage cabinet.
The schedule for the next few days are a few board calls and a lot of cleaning up / re-organization of this space.
I wonder how many "missing" figures I'll find as I clear away the debris on the floor of the shop?
This blog will will contain my rather pedantic ramblings on my experiences within the miniature war gaming hobby. There will be informative how-to’s, thrilling battle reports and thought provoking editorials. I fully expect that history will one day view the contents of this blog on par with Homer’s Illiad or Newton’s Principalia. Or it's a complete waste of time.
