Hi all. Couldn't find anything for this, so starting a thread where we can post any useful non-wargame stuff we can nick repurpose. I'm sure you will only be all too willing to point out my error in missing it.

I've just found a pack of 2 knitting stitch counters. Two small barrels, I think meant to slip onto knitting needles, they have a dial 0-9 on each end, with the current count in a small window, £1.50.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

I think you will find we may well have gone off topic in a single post before now.

Just buy T34 and a Leo, swap turret, so they do make it.
