Its been a very rainy day here so I thought I would continue to work on the modifications to my ACW dio-table (see my previous thread http://www.treefrogtreasures.com/forum/showthread.php?44568-Rearranging-My-ACW-Dio-Table). I modified WB #17615 "Turnpike Fence" so that the figures from Conte ACW set #57122 "Antietam Signature Series - Confederates" (Sculpted by Ken Osen when he worked for Conte) could be used with it. This was a very simple modification that required drilling two small holes into two of the fence rails in order to accomodate the attachment pins on two of the figures; one jumping off the fence after going over it, and one falling backward off the fence after being shot. The modified fence section with figures will be used with the four new WB Confederate w/Fence Sections sets that will be released this fall. The "quick fix" turned out very well and will certainly be a nice addition to my planned 52" turnpike fence length with Rebels pouring over it. Here are some photos:

I feel that these will blend in nicely with these (Ken OSen Photo):
