I've been reading so good books on the FPW which has been inspirational. I made the mistake of also starting to watch the series Vikings. That may have been a mistake. Oh well!:-)

Quick update
Its been a busy month so sorry for the lack of updates. I had a few problems with the molding can that the molds go into to cook. New can on the way so assoon as its here we can actually get some castings done. I've started the Prussian command now and here is a sneak peek at the first officer. Sorry the picture's not very good
