As some of you might be aware, part way through last year I
attempted to create a modular BMG Board that used magnets to hold everything
together while also providing me with what I thought would be an almost endless
stream of variations as new board sections were created. No plan survives initial contact with the
enemy though and after a while it became readily apparent that I needed a new
strategy. The pieces I had ordered
didn't fit quite right, nor did the pieces that I had cut to act as the
‘pavement’ to provide a distinct recess for the road sections to pass through. In the end, I decided to admit defeat and
look for a new approach. A new
opportunity arrived in the form of a sizable piece of MDF coming into my
possession that was close to the dimensions that I required for a Batman
table. Sure it was a little larger, but
that’s all part of the fun right? With a surface to work with, it was time to
play Town Planner...
