Yes very nice. Like the way you drew out the plan and are now fitting the pieces to their spots. The Fire Pit arrangement with connecting Trench lines gives a great look. Thanks for sharing! |

Very inspiring this, I am planning a Utah themed table so you have given me some inspiration. |

That looks pretty neat. Don't forget the wooden dowels to represent the wooden poles for the "guns". |

Great stuff! Mako, I think you've got Pointe du Hoc in mind – the guns were most definitely present at Merville, though they were rather smaller than expected (100mm howitzers rather than the expected 150mm guns). That said, the guns were also present at Pointe du Hoc – they'd just been pulled back into fields a few hundred metres away, where they were found and put out of action by the Rangers. |
