A while back I found some cheap self adhesive magnetic tape in Poundland for a pound a roll, funnily enough. I put it in a box and then forgot about it until yesterday when, searching for some masking tape, I found the two rolls that I'd stashed away. I was in the process of finishing the monitor model that I'd painted when I realised that the tape was 20mm in width, an exact match for the bases I'd been using on the 1/2400th scale ironclads. It is also the same width as the bases I used on my 1/600th scale WW2 coastal forces models. I am now going to apply it to the underside of all of the ironclads, so that I can store then securely in a metal lined plastic box. Not bad for a quid?
Useful stuff. I'll look out for some over here.
