Hey guys. I posted a question yesterday but I thought that I should make a introduction topic about me.
Well I'm a 16 year old guy who lives in the country. I have a bigish yard so I can make a whole lot of crazy things, like trebuchets, tennis-ball cannons, and other questionable things.
So I like to work with my hands, My story of Mjolniring (is that a word?) is that I had to do a Roman essay thingy in 6th grade and have a posterboard with information and pictures. I chose the Roman Army, and we had to make costumes....and well the rest is history.
My first attempt at Mjolinir was when I was just starting out with a glue gun. Before I used (argh) Elmers and Masking tape (I know, I know what the heck was I thinking?)I have reached the 9th age of Cardboarding and now I only use a hot glue gun. period.
My Cardboarding has evolved and from the 6th grade, to Being a Junior in High School. Another thing, I've been a Lurker around on this site for a year, and just thought what the heck, join man, just join.
