New Table

Here is my new table. It was the crate my bike was shipped over in, it has now traveled 5000km. Set on trestle tables and clamped together. The joins were then filled and the whole thing sanded 


Have kept it a flat top style but am also considering using the drop-cloth method when doing scenarios with a lot of hill features


In CD3 terms I have a frontage of 7500 x 5200 yards


Demo layout with an early war map but I need to make a lot more road and river sections.

  7. Very smart - looks like you could extend it by at least another 5 feet?

    Looking forward to seeing some epic battle reports!
