I have 4 2'x4' pieces of 1/2" plywood.
I have one fully primed and 1 with one side primed, need to prime the other 2 1/2, paint one side of them all textured forrest green, and the other side of them all textured slate grey.

Making a wargaming table for me and a friend to play Warhammer 40k on. Bought the stuff this Sunday and today. And now after using the primer, I have found out that I'm going to need at least 2 more cans, maybe three. Also, I am going to have to buy 2 more cans each of green and grey to finish them off with. $$$ I don't have right now.

I also have about 15 miniatures I need to finish painting. I have them primed, just need to sit down and paint them.

I've got a short in my perimeter wire. It's been driving me absolutely nuts. I've got a pretty good excuse for not going out there and fixing it, though:
I can't find the damn map for the mine field.
