Magna Dots

Schmid

by Dick Bryant


This is an innovative idea. This company has taken the magnetic scheduling paraphenalia familiar to middle manager iin various companies an adapted it to the hobby in some very clever ways. Magnetic Dots , arrows, and shapes of various sizes and colors allow for campaign mapping on any magnetic surface. He also provides a "Prep-Board which is a magnetic storage system for the devices. Of particular interest is a set of magnetic stands that can have figures mounted on one side and use the magnetic shapes to express info about the unit underneath. This is one I'm going to try as it is bound to reduce tabletop clutter. Very reasonable prices - $4 to $45, depending on kit size, a lot cheaper than if you were to buy from the magnetic scheduling people to make your own. For more FREE information send a large (#10) SSAE or send $6 for a smaple pack to Schmid, PO Box 384, Sewell NJ 08080
