Home casting pewter Toy Soldiers

Here's a little "how to" in celebration of spring:




The Toy Soldiers Forever! cameras traveled all the way to my back yard to film this little tutorial on home casting of pewter toy soldiers. I hope you enjoy it and I'll see you on the 15th.

Soldier On!

Great video! Looks fun and gave me a chuckle. I'm jealous of that great back yard you have.

Hi, Mannie! I just found your video on casting toy soldiers on YouTube. The video says next time you would cover priming and painting. Did you ever post anything on that subject? I couldn't find anything, and would love to have your tips and tricks for priming and painting metal and plastic soldiers. Thank you so much!

Josh,

Believe it or not, not quite a week after I did that video, my wife, for reasons known only to her, left me.

Needless to say, life superseded the sequel.

Thanks for tuning in though.
