Board Games
Over Estimated
The tear down
Taking the table apart was easier than expected. I thought it would have glue holding the joints together. A leg falling on my face corrected me on that idea.
Wood
Three wooden planks, a handheld jigsaw, a rotary sander, and a weekend diy project. I’ll either have a new table or a funny story. Win win.
Tools
To rent or not to rent, that is the question. Renting a saw and sander for my project was going to cost more than just buying some cheap black and decker tools on amazon. I’m not a master woodworker, I am cheap though, they are good enough to work on my table. Fingers crossed.
The Idea
After searching for a boardgame table I discovered I don’t want one badly enough to pay for one. So the Idea sprang forth. I already had the table, I’ll just make mine into what I need.
The Search
While tempting, I can’t buy a game table just to keep a game out easier. With youtube videos how hard could it be to build a table?
Not happening
I am child. Destroyer of piles. Sometimes it would be great to leave something out and not have it be moved when I look at it again. Some day, some day.
Game night.
It’s not often that I get to play board games any more. One of my favorite games is Elder Sign, a dice rolling adventure through a spooky town that’s going mad. You roll dice to match,.. symbols,…….It’s Yahtzee, spooky Yahtzee. I don’t care, I love it anyway.
A new game
I thought I finally had a night off. Dilly was asleep, I had five strips sketched out, and it was still a couple hours before bedtime. So I pulled out dice forge and got it set up to try and learn finally after three weeks and she woke up. By the time I had gotten her back to sleep I only had enough time left to pack it back up and stare wistfully at the box as I put it back on the shelf. I won’t let myself get a new game until it gets played so I’m getting antsy. I need to stop watching the dice tower.
