The irony of building a standing desk to help with my gimpy leg while having a gimpy leg is not lost on me!

Actual MRI of my hamstring. Beautiful Byzantine columns forming the original and wonderful working structure, bolstered with less sympathetic functional Ottoman reinforcements, later built up with a general Roman facade that is still in some form of creaky use today.

Slow progress but legs are looking more like legs.

This was taken at 2am this morning on Glastonbury Tor. A night under the stars.

Cuisse hinges. Have I ever mentioned how much I hate hinge making? If I have, I don't think I've said it enough. ;)

Nice and clean iron age shield boss all finished. I had the brief wrong and was making life awkward with the spina. Customer didn't want them much to my relief ... phew.

15mm Panzer IV Ausf H done. Back to the drawing board (youtube tutorials) to learn how to up my game from table ready to a proper model. :) Either way, a fun job this afternoon.

A large but small gunned A13 cruiser ready for 15mm Chain of Command. On to a Panzer IV next which makes this lil guy look like he shoots air rifle pellets.

Still stacks to do. With my tools and usual skill sets this has been a complete nightmare. But closing in on an iron-age shield boss shape.

Well that could be handy. 14th century gauntlet. Quick polishing pass to reveal the surface pits.

The irony of my joints hurting as I make finger joints is not lost on me. Thumb joint is about twolice its normal size. These bronze parts are almost set for gold plating.
