Thought I would start this post even though I have posted pics before. This will be the spot for them from now on. :-)

Wojtek and I started cleaning out the original drainage ditch for the field along tent row. It did it's job but was filled in pretty good! Wojtek put his new ruin on the new hill on the east side of the field by the old bridge of death. Nice prop! We also started building the hill that will become known as Monte Cassino when finished. It is located where the V2 launch platform was and the railroad circle in the northwest corner...

Is there going to be a water feature still ? Just ordered the Torro Schwimmwagen !   

Yes, still have the river for you to play in... :-)

Very nice! 

This is going to be sweet, Dean and Wojtek you're both doing a ton of nice work. 

The new layout has lots more open space (so far) but also a lot more nooks and crannies to hide in.

so today was about getting the water tank lower in the ground. spent a couple of hours on it and got it about as low as I am going to make it. We used the clay/loam mix to resurface some roads as when it dries out it makes great road surface. We also started work on extending a brick road out of town. And last, we tested Tom's new gate and set off a field mine while I was running the Jagdpanther down the road!

Looks great. If you guys need any help I can come up next weekend.

Weather permitting, we will be out every Saturday from 9 to at least 1. And don't be like Wojtek, bring a tank! LOL! We are allowed to have a couple of 5 people out to do field upkeep which does require testing after completion... :-)

if you need any rebar or other small lengths of metal i may be able to nic some from work

Possibly but don't go stealing! LOL!

And new city entrance road pretty much complete. New drainage ditch complete and connected to the existing drainage bed running off field. New small bridge installed. Work day tomorrow! Thanks to some guys in advance for coming out! 

e. 

I'll be there with a shovel and 3 tanks

Thanks so much to you guys who came out and helped and worked hard to do the heavy lifting
! We really got a lot done! The last major construction was building Monte Cassino for Wojtek in honour of the Polish forces who did what the other Allies could not and took the hill. Also worked on the heavy water plant, flattened the far southeast corner were the big pile of rocks was, built up the gun emplacement bunker, and general clean up of areas of the field. We will be ready to complete road work next week and Saturday!


  

Awesome can't wait until this crap is over and we can get together again

I didn't get a sunburn OR suffer any debilitating muscle pain... nice!

Wow looks great and love the PzII !

Was out tonight and added a new stone road on the backside of Monte Cassino, and Wojtek placed some ruins on the top. took a couple of minutes to shot some pics of my new all metal Mato StuG :-)

We also added a few more bricks on the front road and then sorted trees in prep for a big Saturday tree day! Yippee! We can now have 5 worker bees out at the field legally! So far Jordan, me, Wojtek in morning, and Russell in the afternoon are coming. Anyone else want to pop by let me know. And bring a tank! :-) We are expecting a little rain but that will be good to sort the roads out. You won't melt... :-)

Count me in. 9 am start?

Are we good to give the tanks a bit of a run after work now or is it still a no go?

We are good to go now... :-) 9 is fine.

LOL... Hope the rain holds off. I may crash the party for a couple hours.

Pics from today. We finally have access to water! Yippee! so now can begin the process of making better surfaces on the roads using a mud slurry which when dry will be very hard and a little smoother! Wojtek was a busy little beaver doing detail work on trees, a little brick work and general clean up around new features. We will be going hard at it Saturday for anyone who want s to pop out and help out! 

Looking good. I should be able to get out for 9. Slurry? Sounds like work boots for sure then 

Likely not able to hang out this Saturday


That looks really sharp. Lemme know if you want more buildings, stone, etc. I still wanna make concrete 'ruined' apartments.

Yes, I will be wearing boots. My running shoes got soaked tonight! :-)

Its looking vary good , lots of work going on there , Thanks to the work crew.
