How do you keep your pieces organized?
-
I have custom divided wood boxes for mine.
Of course, there’s also this option … http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=19009.0

@Bunnies:
I use a simple fishing tackle box. It’s got a lot of different sub-compartments.
Holy @##$%. And I thought I was the only genius to use a fisherman’s box! Gratz Bunny!
Yup, these boxes are perfect, because they have a lot of compartments, of different sizes. -
I use Flambeau Zerust Tuff-Tainer 5004 plastic storage boxes with movable dividers to store my A&A pieces (from all the games, arranged in groups by countries). I store the boxes in a row of assemble-them-yourself wooden shelving units, which I keep under my gaming table. If you go here…

…and check out the first picture (“Overall View.JPG”), you’ll get a partial view of the shelving units and plastic storage boxes under the table.

I’ve handpainted my pieces, so they need a little bit more protection. Thus, I’ve created (am creating) boxes lined with felt with dividers for each individual unit’s size (ex: a compartment for ACs, for infantry, etc.) Then I paint or contact paper some roundels on top of the box, depending on which nations are contained. Voila!
-
A little bit of varnish goes a long way, either with a brush or sprayed on. If you haven’t tried varnish already, try some on the pieces that you consider relatively not-so-well painted.
-
I think it is a good idea of painting so easy to use.
-
Yes, right now my pieces have a satin enamel sprayed on… I find that it goes a long way towards protecting them, but every once in a while they chip. Plus, the containers look snazzy and professional- it’s sort of a “project” I decided to take on. :-)

i found these boxes in the back of an office max, they were perfect from the moment i saw them, they are also made in the UK. GO ENGLAND.

To sum it all up for you speusippus, I think it’s up to you. There’s definently some boxes out there that will work to divide your pieces…go check you local crafts store. If you what a little nicer, make your own like me or rorschach. Do what you want!
-
Yup, its all a matter of how hard you want to look. For me i just checked out the local office supplies and hobby stores until i found a set of boxes that worked fine
-
zip lock bags……;)
-
The only problem with ziplock bags is that they don’t look nice :mrgreen:
