I’ve got nothing, hehe. I’m feeling pretty grim (mentally) and I just can’t …. I can’t. A comment on my previous article post on Facebook said: “Written before midnight? Check. Showcases KoD? Check. That’s all you really need.” Thanks Dirk, that was actually a BIG help. I’ve said it many times lately, my mental health […]
I think I’m going to have to make time to write my articles during the day, I did think about it today but did nothing about it. Writing them in the evenings is not fantastic, especially when it hits 10:46pm and I realise I haven’t written anything today! Either that, or I implement some kind […]
One A Day – Day 7 I must admit I’m really struggling with this ‘One A Day’ project, this is only day seven but it feels like MONTHS … crazy! I’m sure being unwell isn’t helping the situation but I’m also aware that spontaneously writing a new article each day, one that isn’t connected to […]
I have a cracking headache, I’m not very well at all. I left work this morning after only a few hours of being there. A negative COVID test result was nice to see but still, I hate being ill, especially as a one-man small business, there isn’t anyone else to get things done. So given […]
It seems a little strange to be sitting here writing an article about making simple fields, rather than writing something about one of the MDF kits we manufacture but as I have said though in previous articles, I’m not very good at ‘selling’ my products! Perhaps we’ll have a look at one of our kits […]
One A Day – Day 4 I’ve left it very late today to write my article (it’s currently 7:10pm), they are certainly taking much longer than the 25-30 minutes I spent painting each of the Necrons! I also have a terrible hang over so I’m going to keep this one short, super short. Tribal uses […]
One A Day – Day 3 I’ve always considered myself an entrepreneur, a business-man, but I’d be loath to consider myself a “salesman”. Is that a problem for a small business, to be operated by a terrible salesman? As I sit here chuckling saying to myself, “Does a bear shit in the woods?”, it’s obvious […]
One A Day – Day 2 Like many gamers I know, we we’re all introduced to tabletop gaming by Games Workshop. What ever your opinion on their miniatures, games, business model and practices without them, I probably wouldn’t be interested in tabletop gaming today. Why start this article titled ‘MDF Rich, Cash Poor’ with a […]
One A Day – Day 1 It’s not something I’m known for, or for that matter really any good at but it is something I enjoy. Writing. I had a great time painting my Necrons as part of my last “One A Day” project, uploading a new image to Instagram before midnight each day was […]
I need to do more ‘hobby’ activities. It sounds strange as you’d think I have loads of fun playing with scenery, terrain and wargaming models all day! Nothing could be further from the truth. The reality is I spend a good deal of time worrying about the business, a good deal of time cleaning, moving […]
In this video I share my project of turning the Lord of the Rings Collector Guide from PDF into an awesome hard cover book which I can add to my bookshelf. Stitching and binding your own books is a wonderful project. Not only is it relatively easy but it allows you to add ‘proper’ books […]
This was a fun project to work on! There are so many things I want to add and improve but for the moment it’s certainly usable in a range of tabletop wargames, like Mordheim, Frostgrave, Middle Earth: Strategy Battle Game etc. I highly recommend spending some time when you are working with MDF models to […]
