Re: Storing FT minis

I'm using hinged cover Rubbermaid plastic shoeboxes for storage.  I
drill 
a set of 1/8" holes in the following pattern in the base of the box:

	|	1.5"	|  0.5" |	1.5"	|	

_	x		x	x		x	...

0.25"

_	x		x	x		x	...

I then thread 1/8" heavy elastic band through the holes, forming a
parallel
set of bands to hold the base of an FT miniature.  The above pattern as
shown
would hold two figures.

A 1.5 gal Rubbermaid hinged box can hold 10 figures and I have not had
any trouble
with any figure coming undone or suffering damage.  I'm currently using
four
of these boxes and will be needing to make more.  My first storage box 
was designed to hold 15 figures in a 3x5 pattern, but I considered it
too big.

If you alternate the smaller ships with the larger capital ships, they
will
fit comfortably.
