Timing
I think I am giving up on the early morning posting schedule – it was an interesting experiment. Overall, I can’t say my visitor count improved at all, in fact it seemed like it dropped a bit. Though admittedly at my volume, any change of +1 or -1 is a major shift. The biggest impact…

Your all clear, kid!
Continuing my collection of the initial releases of the X-Wing Second edition starships, and added the Millenium Falcon (Lando version). Initially, I was not excited about the model – the addition of the escape pod in the front just doesn’t seem right and makes the ship look weird. But after digging a bit, I discovered…

Miscellaneous plans
Going to be a busy next couple of weeks, as I prepare for our upcoming Magic: The Gathering tournament. I still have to finish up the last pieces of the trophy I have been working on, in between what seems to be nearly constant rain. In addition, my trips to Toledo are more numerous, limiting…

Continued to tweak and adjust the organization trays I have been working for X-Wing, and I think I have a solution design at this point. Ended up not being as thin as I had hoped, but everything fits, and more importantly, the upgrade pieces connect well. Going to test it out a bit in an…

Star Wars: X-Wing organization
My recent game of X-Wing with my son got me inspired to start designing and testing an organization tray, similar to my design for Armada. Basically, just a way to keep the cards organized with the tokens, since the game has a lot of little pieces. My goal is to have something simple for each…
