Re: New fighter stand idea.

I have used the pizza protectors for big ships where I didn't want to
drill 
holes.	Not sure where to buy them, but you might just want to call or
stop 
by your local pizza place.  As of late, I have been making new fighter 
stands as well.  I started to mount some of the larger ones on thin
nails 
with a fat head.  The nail head fits perfectly in a small washer and
with 
some epoxy you have a sturdy base.

Hello All:

 In oder to avoid all the confusion I got myself into at last
year's Gen Con, I've really decided to start to prepare now so I don't
anger my players by not being prepared.  While going through a short
list
of what I would need to play my B5 Severed Dreams scenario, I had an
epithany regarding fighter stands.   
 Those little tripods that pizza places put in their carry-out
boxes to keep the pie from being crushed would make fantastic fighter
stands.  Just turn it upside down and gule the fighter mini to the top
of
the one of the legs.  You can cut the legs at various heights and/or
glue
a heavy washer to the bottom places use to make it harder to accidently
flip over.
 Since I don't know anyone in the resturant business, I was
wondering if anyone could give me a source for these tripods. 

Later,
