I used 3mm thumb nuts drilled out to fit 3mm acrylic rods. I used a number of 3d printed jigs for cutting the rods, assembly of the stands and gluing the magnets. If I remember later I’ll attached some pictures of the jigs/stands

Thank you so much John. I wondered where you wandered off too, hehe.
Still waiting on Amerika pieces but hopefully I can start painting them soon. I did order some new factories from Shapeways and should have them any day. The new factories have 4 smoke stacks. They will be used for Increased Factory Production Technology.
Minor Factories (one smoke stack) - Production 3
Adv Minor Factories (2 smoke stacks - OOB version) - Production 4
Major Factories (3 - smoke stacks) - Production 10
Adv Major Factories (4 - smoke stacks) - Production 12Wow, they have Advanced major and minor factories! I will have to check that out.

New Tech tokens - (Purple poker chips)
New registered dice from vegas.
New Objective cards
Technology - War Bonds (These will be used to indicate the player has the war bonds technology)
Technology - Long Range Aircraft . (Normally these would fall over but they are magnetized and take up very little space. Even less than the plane itself. Any plane on a stand is designated to have long range technology) These are polarized to match any magnet on a plane or carrier. This works on any plane so I don’t have to have sculpts for LRA.
-
Sweet ! Bet a V-2 would look cool on a stand ! : )
-
Man, these are so awesome, Cyanight. Fantastic job on all these. :-D
-
great job on the aircraft stand solution! what a advantage it is having a magnetized board. Since the planes are not permanently attached to the stand you don’t have to worry up them taking up too much space in your storage boxes…like I do…
very well engineered cyanight.
ps looks like Amerika should be getting shipped out soon… All the pieces have finally arrived they are just doing their quality control. Cant wait for these new units… need them to spark up the brush again.
-
Normally the bases on these stands take up a lot of space but since I have a magnetized board I was able to use the small 1cm pieces that are normally attacked to the piece. I got these from Litko.
I am so ready to start painting Amerika pieces :)

This is the latest version of the file I just had printed. It has an updated Chile roundel that is round and the original triangular Iraq roundel.

Repainted these Italian Heavy Tanks to match the color scheme of the other tanks.
-
Advanced Air Bases (Used for Paratrooper Technology)
-
Advanced Naval Bases (Used for Improved Shipyard technology. Advanced Naval Bases will be placed to indicate the increases production)

Those are sweet, Cyanight! Nice job! :-D

By the way, are those stripes on your airfields, painted, or is that a decal?
-
Decals. I cant paint that straight, lol
-
-
I got them off ebay. I originally purchased them for Japanese aircraft. The decals came with roundels and other fuselage markings for aircraft. I decided to cut the lines to fit my air strips.

Well, that is very cool. I got to admit. :-)

Here are my Industrial Complexes
1 stack - Minor
2 stacks - Advanced Minor (Technology - Increased Factory Production)
3 stacks - Major
4 stacks - Adcanced Major (Technology - Increased Factory Production)
-
Great job Cyanight. That is a lot of factories, you got there. :-D
-
Thanks John, They are all magnetic too. I think I put too many magnets in the 4 stack ones. It feels like they are made of plutonium, hehe
-
I painted my neutrals for Global 1940.
There are only multiples for Portugal to cover the South African neutrals and then the 4 stacks for the Mongolians.
-
Wow Cyanight, these are so cool looking. :-D
What company did you get some of these decals from?
-
I made the decals with my printer and decal paper.
