Re: [SG] Chitless Stargrunt

I base all my minis on metal stands so I can use magnets to attach
markers.  

You could do the same and then just print out your "chits" on regular
paper and then stick self-adhesive magnetic sheet to the back before
cutting them out.  Then the chits would attach to the bottom of the
bases and be easily swapped out without worrying about the adhesive
getting screwed up.
