Free Skull and CrossBones
« on: August 20, 2006, 06:57:56 AM »
I had to do something Different for a day so I decided to fire up my Foundry. I wanted to make some ornaments for a pirate gun that I want to make and needed some small skull and crossbones. I found a real good pattern on Ebay. The only problem is that it has small thin sections. You can see that I didn't have everything quite right on the one on the right. The aluminum chilled before the sand was filled. I think I have everything worked out now. The one on the left turned out great! Anyway I've decided to give these two away for free (I'll even pay shipping) Just be the Sixth person to PM me and their yours. These would be great on the side of your little Pirate gun carriage. Paint'em, Polish'em, Whatever.They measure about 1 1/4" square.

I've been known to play that way.



It's more Rev War, but will still work.

Ok, Some people weren't paying attention to the board often enough :o  I've decided to give away one more set. No picture, I'm to tired. These were practice ones and aren't perfect, but their good. This set is a bit bigger, 2 X 2 or so. If you've won in the last six months you can't play, Sorry. Open to everyone. Sixth PM gets them. I'll get shipping.

Have fun, Wes

The last set was mailed today GregP42, Hope you enjoy them.

Powder Keg,

I am watching in the mail, my mailman should at least be happy this package isn't heavy! Last one he dropped off was 60 pounds of linotype  :o He thinks I hate him or something hehehehe
