Cool Table Idea/Project

What I like about this most is the use of a solid core doors with 1X3 trim functioning as a Dam on one side - something I have done. For me is the best part is the pour on epoxy covering over the field of pennies - Me, I am thinking something similar done in a grid of somekind....

So, I brought to work three games;

LNL's White Star Rising

3W's Splash One Flatop

And Nova's Handy Rotary Series.

You Are Not So Smart

Probably off topic - but interesting stuff.

I find wargamers, for the most part, are smart deep thinking people who are in the hobby because they are not shallow thinkers.
