Just before Christmas my friend Deansy From the Internet™ asked for my help with building his gaming table. He has been collecting TONS of the excellent and sadly OOP Rackham shipping containers and decided to make a shipping yard. He primarily wants to use it for games of M.E.R.C.S, which uses a 3x2 table size, so decided to do a 3x3 with one foot of water on the dockside. The addition of piers and boats will extend its usefulness to games using a 3x3.
Anyway Dean took a bunch of pics of our progress which I am stealing to put here. It was 40 degrees Celsius the day we did this so paint/goop etc dried in about 5 mins, it is amazing how much you can get done in Satan's own weather, you could see the paint drying! Still a fair bit of painting on a bunch of stuff so a couple more working bees and this should be good to go!

| The resin pooled because of the heat. We have since poured a second coat which evened it out. |
If you guys are free, I'd welcome you in Florida to help build another one like that!
