Mr. President – Storage Solution From Rails on Boards
Regular readers of this blog know that I’m a huge fan of the plastic, form-fitting counter trays for wargames offered by Rails on Boards (in their Cube4Me shop). I’ve actually put together a few sets for them to sell on their site, but this… Continue Reading “Mr. President – Storage Solution From Rails on Boards”
