                        Sounds like you're planning on making a war damage or hurricane damage diorama. You'll have to post pictures as you build it; I'd like to see it!Tongue [:P]

                        By the way, how did your house make out with Frances?

                        Glad to see someone got something good out of that storm. I have gotten branches out of my trees many times for small scale wooden objects... Nice renewable source!
