AndyM finally had a free evening today, so we managed to sort out the Omaha Beach obstacle
collection for Sunday - at least mostly. Problems to solve:
Also while Andy was repairing stakes, I got out all the boxes for Bloody Omaha and sorted through everything to track down what was missing or broken - found the one stray Tobruk MG34 gunner, found a spare barrel for one of the two 75mm bunkers (actually nicked off a PSC Marder III), fixed the two broken ramps, finally found the small MG nest, and touched up the chipping paint on the two Sherman DD's.
- Not enough mine stakes. Easily solved by the simple approach of Buying More the other week,
- The existing mine stakes were largely based on 2p pieces, and their paint had started lifting - repair and repaint time.
- Two broken ramps. Superglue.
- Not enough ramps. See solution 1. Also I may 3D print more tomorrow.
- Not enough hedgehogs. Nothing we can do about that before Sunday.

Oh, and the marsh is done.
All in all quite a good evening.
