That's exactly what I'm thinking. It will give the look of a dwarven realm.

The above door frame comes in the mines of Moria set.

This may or may not be a lil' bit of topic but, do you know or can recommend me a good and not too expensive hot knife?

Thanks,

I only have U.S . sources

I think this is one of the best I own because of the jigsaw like accessories.

I must remember to get a firm grip on my ruined lower mandible every time I propose to visit this thread. I cannot afford to have it hitting the floor as often as it has. Your attention to detail and trialling of so many intricate options - outstanding. I envy those who get to play on this board (board is too small a word for it!)

Thanks buddy, I inspect the links further tommorow and see if something fits me, there is nothing in Sweden so it being in the US is no problem. Thanks again and good luck with your project, I will continue to follow it and give you any feedback I can give.

Best Wishes,
Wiirgy

You are welcome.
You don't need an expensive Hot knife unless you are installing walk in Refrigerators.

The rain has been preventing casting. I only have cast the rune mold once. Here are more prototypes. I like the runes but I have not tried to spell any thing out yet.

They look great Charlie, much more fitting.

I decided on a half column for the 21th Hall entrance. The wall will have to be totally dry or it will settle out of square when I install the columns.
I will be able to use the decorative element you suggested with the half column. I can tie the half column into the wall and make the section stronger.

Looks great to me and your knowledge of these blocks is shining through with your little construction thoughts.

Oldman Willow · **Posted:** Fri Jun 28, 2013 3:18 pm

I am having a great deal of difficulty keeping to my plan of no more than two feet high :sad:

Oh Well

BIGGER

OOHAHAHA

Bigger=Better

haha

Really good looking so far! Keep it up

I would say that if this is going to be player friendly I'd suggest you to not go over the 2ft mark too much, this however comes from someone who is 5 feet 2 inches. x)

Fantastic work, this just keeps getting better! Your attention to detail is astounding!

I cant wait for the paint to appear, it just keeps getting better.

It's looking more like a high budget film set! Love it.

26 3/4 inches or 26 1/4 tall will depend on the base.

It needs to match my dungeon set but I want to use a warmer gray.

This is a fair construction you have underway here Charles. It's looking extremely good, I'm glad to see your still busy working away. Can I ask where you got the top of the pillar mould from? Or did you do it yourself. Superb work as always, I'll keep an eye on this thread. What are you using as the mountainside? plaster rocks?

This is truly superb!
