It isn’t enough just to own the miniatures, is it? No, you need paints, washes, brushes, files, clips, primers, sprays, sand, flock, super glue, white glue, plastic glue, epoxy glue, green stuff, brown stuff, shapers, hand drills and rotary drills and drill drills…
…and that’s just the start, isn’t it?
Hello again from Strictly Average! Well, it seems likely Big Red booted this, my weekly Terrible Tuesday love offering, off its normal midnight perch due to the News and Rumors new-mini announcement, so really the pressure to perform just isn’t in me today.
(Turns out he didn’t – Editor)
Nothing new, really. But you’re distracting me again – let’s get started!
As the opening alluded to, miniatures and dice are just the narrow tip of the hobby iceberg – it might be all you see on the table but there’s more lurking under the hobby sea.
Ugh. Sorry for that – the iceberg metaphor was pretty awful. It’s simple, really; I have a thing for ‘hobby junk’ – up to and including game rooms! It’s some strange, voyeuristic quirk, admittedly.
So let’s look at some hobby-related junk, shall we? The junk in question is all junking up my room…

Okay, it’s not very practical, but I have way too much fun with this thing. |
Keep the dirty jokes to yourselves, please! (Or email me privately… but don’t alert Big Brother!)

Big shelves. Wal-Mart. Not expensive. Eye-sore. Move on..! |

Remember the stupid iceberg? I go through a ton of spray paint. |

I have two bins where I throw junk that may or may not be useful for the table I may or may not get around to making. |
There you have it! Call it junk or a storage solution, but my long-sufferring wife is cool with it all as long as it stays in its designated room.
Except those occasions when she gets home from work to find the bar has been converted to a game table, but what’s she going to say in front of company, right?
Right?
Lest you think it all but air, my friends! Below I’m dropping a link for the best storage solution you’ll find anywhere – the plain green case!
Got any storage solutions to share? What about just junk – I’ll take that too! Drop your links and your pics, your comments and your thoughts, below.
Oh yeah. Standard outro!
