MOVEMENT TRAYS FOR FIGURES - Ep88 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2025-05-10 | We craft easy to make movement trays for infantry using common and inexpensive materials. These could be crafter for cavalry, artillery, etc also. The sound is a tad inconsistent. And my camera work is terrible. But I am finally making a video so yeah, I'll call it a win.

NECROMUNDA - CAWDOR TEMPLE - Ep 85 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2023-10-15 | We build and paint a temple for House Cawdor using a Pegasus Hobbies kit. The kit has no roof so one is scratchbuilt. Despite the lack of a roof this is a fine kit. I apologise for the rather jumbled nature of this video, it took me weeks to compile enough to even edit. And when I did edit it I was shocked at how poor some of the video is. Nonetheless I am posting it. Possibly just to prove I still can. Ideally this will be a lesson learned and future vids will be less dire. One can hope, anyway.#necromunda #cawdor #underhive #warhammer #warhammer40k #pegasushobbies

At least until someone who may be a tad hostile sets fire to it, likely after they have fired the cabin from the previous video.Fort Clyde (Clyde Blockhouse) waynehistorians.org/Places/site.php?site=124Miniatures - 28mm FIW figures from Sash and Saber. sashandsaber.comI also want to thank Dreispitz - Mikes miniature wargaming blog, for providing the construction method I was lacking to actually build log buildings effectively. dreispitz.blogspot.comMusic - "Legionnaire" by Scott Buckley – www.scottbuckley.com.au Check him out, fantastic talent!
FRONTIER CABIN - FIW/AWI/ACW/COWBOYS 25-28mm - EP 79 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2022-08-28 | We build a log cabin, suitable for many 25-28mm frontier settings. Using simple methods we achieve a very attractive cabin that any settler would be proud to inhabit. At least until someone who may be a tad hostile sets fire to it. Or it accidentally catches fire. Or my uncle sets it on fire for the insurance. But that would totally never happen...**UPDATE** Some individuals have sagely nodded and pronounced the wooden chimney to be bad and terrible...but that's how it was done. Lined with cob (clay/straw) for extra protection, this was meant to get the house through the first winter or so - then, if you were still alive and the place had not burned down, the settlers would gather rocks or make proper bricks for a more permanent structure. This log method would also work a treat for soldiers temporary winter quarters of the period.Miniatures - 28mm FIW figures from Sash and Saber. sashandsaber.comI want to acknowledge James Townsend and his fantastic cabin build project.

Sci-Fi Barrels - FWW/TNT/DREDD/NECROMUNDA/MCC Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2022-04-17 | Using common bottlecaps from plastic drink bottles, we create some highly useful barrels, suitable for any sci-fi setting.

BURNED RUINS - FWW/TNT/DREDD - Ep 73 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2022-02-06 | We scratchbuild a burned out ruined building, suitable as Wasteland or Cursed Earth terrain. What was once a snug home is now a shattered and mostly ashen hollow shell. Sifting through the ash you may find some bits of rusted metal, charred wood, and likely bits of bone. Useful as cover, though, when the inevitable Raiders or Mutants arrive to invite you for...err, to...dinner.Outro - Deep State - Vans In Japan.

FWW/TNT/DREDD - INSTANT POST-APOC SETTLEMENT - Ep71 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2021-12-27 | We build and paint the O scale Plasticville "Hobo Jungle" set. This is the most post-apocalyptic set that Plasticville has ever produced. It requires almost no modifications out of the box to become an "Instant Settlement" out in the Wasteland or Cursed Earth.Note that I did manage to lose a bit of footage multiple times, but it should all still make sense. I hope.
FWW/TNT/DREDD - WASTELAND POST OFFICE - EP 70 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2021-12-15 | Putting the Post in Post-Apocalyptic, we build and paint the venerable Plasticville Post Office. Another from the Big Box O' Kits, this one is notable for the details that are actually still with the kit. All in all a great kit with loads of potential just like the rest of the Plasticville line. They look rather simple and toylike in their raw state but wow do they paint up nicely. Valhalla Falls is the fictional town that my post-apoc projects started in, way back in 2013.

FWW/TNT/DREDD - Precinct 13 - A wasteland police station - Ep 63 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2021-10-10 | Yet another in my series of Plasticville O scale (28mm) kits.

FWW/TNT/Dredd - WASTELAND HOSPITAL - Ep62 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2021-10-01 | A build/paint/slight kitbash of a classic Plasticville O gauge Hospital kit, suitable for 28mm gaming.

FALLOUT/TNT/DREDD - LAST CHANCE GAS - Ep 61 Hacksaws Hobby Bunker 2021-09-08 | We build not one, but two Plasticville O gauge gas stations from the famed Box O' Kits.
