Movement Trays?

Post by Tyrannus deathbringer »

Can anyone recommend me a good supplier for movement trays?

I'm not too fussed about manufacturer, just economy and usefulness.

Many thanks

I can't recommend a supplier but I can give you an idea: make them yourself. I might do that myself the next days. I'll use plastic sheet 2 mm thick from a hobby shop and sprue plastic (eg. from warriors box) for the edges of the tray.

You may want to consider lining the trays with either sheet steel or sheet magnet and then fixing the other to the bottom of your figure's bases.

Good tip, Lazarus.

That's the plan eventually ...but for the mo' just need to rattle up some trays for some casual games using unpainted little guys.
