| Those hirst arts molds, while very cool, are a hobby unto themselves as you have to cast the mold like 2 dozen times to get enough blocks. It's like building something out of legos only you need to cast the legos in plaster first. |

No arguments.
I remember thinking how cool the hirst arts stuff was and then read the tutorial on how to make one of the ruins towers or some such and it had instructions like cast this mold 36 time and this other mold like 24 times. When you consider the time it takes for the plaster to cure, it starts getting more than a bit ridiculous. |

Mark, I think this sort of thing is right up Sean's alley. He tends to be allot more artistic than the rest of us. We might as well encourage him to do this as then we can get him to make buildings and such using the same method later. TLoS isn't a problem if you have a 5 inch high wall in the way.
Sean, I look forward to the new pitch. Hopefully you'll have it done in time for the Chaos cup.  _________________ Kerwin

what are you? nuts?! Right now my time is getting spent researching a cure for WOAGPTCMO or With out a gaming place to call my own.
A lot of people like the idea of me opening my own shop. the issues just keep piling up. Money being the most prominent. anyway. I gave these links incase YOU wanted to make your own pitches. I probably wont be making one for a while. _________________

Unless you get your wish and open a gaming store...then you can consider it work.
Anyways, there are options. Maybe the new store in the south hills has gaming room. Maybe Jeff will end up finding room for a tables. Maybe you will get your dream of opening a gaming store. Maybe we will be able to pay Dom enough to drop you somewhere convenient on the way back from Legions.
Time will tell on what will happen. _________________ Kerwin
