Nothing like scissors, paper, pens and in this case pins for a bit of craftwork.
As it happens it’s world mental health day today. I am not a great fan of the idea/method/mechanism except (originally a few days per year was memorable….) to remind us that there are many more than 365 worthwhile things to celebrate or promote.
Mental health is especially important though. The modern world makes massive demands on our number one muscle and it needs continually looking after.
So simple hobbies like craft, art, imagination, writing – not to mention gardening, music and travel – in fact anything that gets you away from your device – mobile/tv/screen is worthwhile – and which releases your creative side is to be welcomed.
Today in my case it’s creating some map pins so I can experiment with map games.

There are some interesting symbols on those pins. What are they representing?

Hi Frank well I am after a campaign solution for my fauxterre 1930 games. Turns out hexes or squares won’t cut it so counters neither. The pins are my first attempt at army units. As it’s campaign oriented I have some bridging big river pins as well as route damage pins. The two forces are colour and id differentiated so green versus pink and numbers versus letters for ease of recognition.
