The Table of Babel

The Table with my goods upon it

As I noted in my Salute 2013 posting last week upon my return to Girvan I managed to buy some furniture which I had been after for some time.  While none of you will be interested in the three piece suite or such you might well be keen on the above.  A lovely and believe me bloody strong and heavy table.  Its not quite six feet by four but it is ideal for office work and for wargaming too.  Sitting atop its four solid wood legs is a solid wood top, weighing in at over 75kgs for the whole piece.

I know its a little egotistical to have put all of my own writing and published titles on the table along with my Flintloque miniatures but hey, its my table after all.  It will see a lot of use in times to come and it has a lot of potential for underside storage too which I think is vital for wargaming terrain and all the other needed materials therein.  The room I work in is nearing its capacity for storage of books and other materials.  ‘Table of Babel’ well a play on words but also with a more serious intent…who knows just what gaming will be created or taking place on its solid surface.  The peoples of a thousands worlds and dimensions many, creatures and robots, Dragons and Orcs.

Also before I am asked, and I will be asked, what price such a table fit for the gods of gaming?  Well….let’s say a copy of Slaughterloo is the same price.  Bargain!

  1. A mighty table indeed, as I have seen in the sneak peak! Very nice build too; solid wood makes for maximum stability, which is vital for a game table. I have to admire your muscle strength as well; with my own feeble skeleton-like posture I would not be able to move such a table one single inch! 🙂

    • Thanks for your comment Sam.

      Perhaps I am mighty but a little birdy told me you dug up a tree stump all on your own and that took some effort…believe me I have done this too. The table is indeed solid and it will game up nicely.
