2013 Pinewood Derby Champion!

Congrats to my eldest son, Jacob, on winning his Pinewood Derby last night.

Not only was he the top finisher in the Boys division, he also won the Overall -- by, literally, on hundredth of a second -- and finished the night undefeated. He has a couple of nice, new trophies to add to his shelf.

( With that concluded, we now return to our regularly scheduled Warhammer hobby ... )

Pinewood Derby Week!

That's right, readers, it's that time of year again. For the past two weeks, I've put away the sculpting tools and Green Stuff and stepped away from the Warhammer world to test my skills in engineering, to build the fastest 5oz. wooden car possible. Thankfully, the time for the race is fast approaching and, tomorrow night, we can sweep up the saw dust and put away the plastic wheels and sandpaper and tungsten weights for another season.
