Magnets...

Hi all
Got sick of all the small bits and bobs just lying around.
Used thin chipboard covered in green cloth (stapled to the back) Screw it up on the wall and use small magnets (with a hole in the middle for a screw) to hold the items in place...
Havent got very far yet but it's a start.
Used brass rod to hold up the time pencils.
Just an idea...

All the best

A very nice display T42.

For those not familiar with time pencils wartime ones with a brass barrel are of American manufacture, made for the UK - about 12 million were supplied by the USA and a similar number made in the UK.

Thanks for the info Bonnex, didn't know that the brass bodied were produced in USA.
