I take three pieces of copper wire and twist them together. On one end
I bend
the wires out into a "Y" shape and glue on to a Nickle (US $0.05) but
any small
metal disk should do. I cover that end of the base with putty to make
it smooth.
At the other end of the twisted copper wire I bend the wires out into a
"Y" shape
and bend the end od the "Y" up. At the ends of the wires I place one
fighter, for
a total of 3 fighters on a base.
