The fourth and final room of the planned Wargames Eyrie. I want a 12ft x 6ft board in here.
In the old house I based this on 8 kitchen cabinets which served as storage. The units were split in 2, with 6 cabinets a gap then the equivalent of 2 more cabinets. The 6 cabinet base was used for a 6x4 or 8x6 board before extending to 12 x 6. You probably guess I had 3 6x4 boards that at the smallest configuration were stacked on top of each other. I had planned to do the same here but I am not sure.
I may try cabinets on wheels to give more flexibility. I am not planning to put any storage on the walls to maximise space for chairs. I like to use office chairs so when you're tired you can glide up and down the board with a push of your legs. This luxury started because in the old house the only space chairs I had were office chairs.

Looking promising...and what an amazing view. Do you mind me asking what neck of the woods you are in (general direction will be fine)?
ReplyDeleteI'm facing NW and it's the Irish Sea
DeleteThanks Grigork, I was interested in the topography and that island or headland in the distance.....a great view is always good from the painting desk (I can see an ECW battlefield and an iron age hillfort among other things).
