I would have preferred all sand, but if the PolicĂa Local catch me bringing home bags and bags of sand I might have a few problems and end up in the local press "Englishman caught stealing sand off the beach to play with little soldiers" ..... <br />The scenic grass is dyed sawdust I made. I have to scrape up the sawdust after the games and either throw it away or filter it out with a sieve. It's been a steep learing curve, the table is very heavy and needs a lot of water to shape the contours, so that adds extra weight and the table has to be very robust. <br /><br />I have plans to make an article on the sand table, I must do it soon !<br /><br />Thanks again.JohnMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13918184580603431496noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17172971.post-86991647422116031792020-08-25T18:33:44.264+01:002020-08-25T18:33:44.264+01:00Hello John!

I think is the only way to harmonise all the elements of the escenography, otherwise they looks like a puzzle, as I see in internet or in my littles attempts.... But if you put diferent sands o little stones o scenic grass, sturf...do you lose them? So Do you change the sand each time you play?...ahh...you live near the beach...<br />Antonio.Antonio Lobohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07950180022474697395noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17172971.post-25577608461085104062020-08-25T11:04:57.252+01:002020-08-25T11:04:57.252+01:00That was really good.
