In these days of Trade Wars, Monetary Wars, Culture Wars and too many Real Wars wouldn't it be nice if everybody spent some time building bridges? Just an hour or so a day? I decided to do my part and descended into The Workshop and fired up my trusted friend Proxxie; inside of an hour we had built four bridges. Really, I don't see why this is so hard……on the other hand I don't see it solving too many of the world's problems either. But it did give me an hour's peace and distraction, so I guess that "all's well that ends well". This is how it all went down……… link |

Attaboy AR- helping humanity forward by crossing divisions (even if it is only in 1/56 scale). |

You make that look so easy, now I'm wondering why I bother shopping for bridges the right size. - Ix |

It's true. So many of our leaders talk about healing divisions, but so few of them put the divisions into reserve and give them time to repair equipment and train replacements. Nice tutorial. |

@robert piepenbrink LOL!! You made me spit coffee all over my keyboard! And so true too ;) |

@Yellow Admiral Would you like me to make some for you? I love custom work. daftrica89@yahoo.com Put "bridge" in the title |

Built a basic no-frills bridge from wooden stir sticks and popsicle sticks. |

For some reason I never considered a foam bridge. I do not have a Proxxie cutter but I'll manage now that you have blazed the way |

I want one of their little itty bitty table saws. So cute! |

If I had the money I would have one of everything…..It would save so much time instead of running from the basement to the garage and back down again; but, on the other hand, I need the exercise |

It sounds like you and I have a similar set up… |

woodshop in the garage, toy soldiers in the basement….it is my best source of exercise |

The figures seem out of place, next to a pristine whitewashed bridge. I prefer a natural, 'weathered' look personally. But If I had the board, I'd probably do the same, sadly I'm stuck with 3rd world cardboard products. regards davew |

Actually that is the bare blue board, I still haven't gotten around to painting them (my gnat-like attention span strikes again!) |
