You could easily spot the 25mm gamers.
They were the ones with longer arms.

(Apologies to the Smash robots).

And biceps like Popeye

Hi all, first post here.

I've acquired a couple of sets of metal paper drawers people seem to be throwing out these days. The Bisley type of thing. My wife has stolen one of them for her make up, but the other I use to store my 10mm and 15mm WW2 stuff. Then I've got a few really useful boxes to transport to the club.

I've based most on 1p and 2p coins and support on metal washers. The drawers are lined with magnetic sheet so nothing slides about. The transport boxes I've put in some Charlie Fox Trot trays.

Hi Hetzen, welcome to the forum ..... even if you've been lurking for ages

Before the current fuss I was scouring the local charity shops for those units. Saw one unit in a British Heart foundation store, about four feet high, dozen or so drawers. Ideal! Held the door open for a lady who arrived at the door at much the same time. Yeah, you guessed it, she bought the sodding unit. No good deed goes unpunished!

 

Oh, Mike !!....Sod's law strikes again.

On a brighter note....Welcome to the forum Hetzen .

Cheers - Phil

I was offered a couple of multi-drawer metal tray cabinets just recently. I said no.

(Sorry Mike)

Welcome to the funhouse Hetzen.

You say WWII - please elaborate. What forces?

Also, I am intrigued by just how much makeup your wife has.   

Also, pictures please. 

Of your collection, not your wife's makeup.

I've bought some blusher brushes to use as dry brush brushes. Saw it as a recommendation on YouTube and thought I'd give it a try. Not that I'm saying you can get your own back or anything.

Like mine she probably hides a box of undeclared makeup in a box under the bed.

I do not question what quantities of stuff  Mrs Orcs Has. Otherwise she might question why I have 18 of 24 bookshelves, an entire den of stuff and my own Loft over the garage, plus "ready use" terrain in the house loft.

I have also managed to condition her to the delivery of  various packages that are heavy for their size addressed to me at least one a week.

You have to know when not to ask a question. 

Rouge Hermes Matte Lipstick - £58.

For that, you could get an Anglo-Saxon Army Pack AND a Norman Army Pack.

Sometimes it's all about density.

Is that matte lipstick your own personal favourite  ?   

 

What do you guys use as picture hosting? I used to use Photobucket, but they seemed to have gone tier levels of usability now. I'd rather give Leon my cash.

At  least the lipstick is ready painted.

I can never find the right shade, not many companies make a Fieldgray shade.

I use ImageShack but have a paid account rather than a free one.

I set up a free blogspot blog for my picture "hosting". I usually create a quick entry, load my pictures then use that URL to post the pictures on another site.  Probably not the most efficient way of doing things but it works for me. You could always just post pictures with no text if you don't want to write a story.
