    Fort Mifflin

    Hi; I have been doing some volunteer work over at Ft Mifflin for a while now. They (ok just Beth Beatty, the Director) have talked me into “working” part time on the repair projects all over the place… literally everywhere. It’s an impossible job. The site needs a crew of at least 5 persons to…

    Medieval Rope Making

    this poor guy looks like he’s trying to communicate that his illustrator has soo messed up drawing his rope making devices that they can’t possibly in any world work, and he knows he’s stuck there forever not being able to get his work done.

    Inshave, Scorp, Box Scraper, and I’m not going to make any friends with this post.
