View Article  OLFA Knives now in store
by Anbar on Thu 25 Oct 2007 21:12 BST
We've added two of the excellent OLFA range of knives to the store:


OLFA 180 Black - £3.94p

A general purpose hobby knife that makes an excellent durable hobby knife. The blades have snap-off segments (invented by olfa in fact) and are strong and sharp with the knife casing being in metal. My own knife is passing it's fourth year and its something I can rely on.

OLFA L-1  £6.45p

This is a metal and plastic heavy duty knife with a locking mechanism for the blade - strong and big enough for the tough tasks .

We've also got replacement blades for both knives and they can be found here in the Tools section of Scratch-Builder's Paradise.

View Article  Camouflage Netting now available
by Anbar on Wed 03 Oct 2007 11:53 BST
We're very happy to announce that our new camouflage netting is now available.

It's made of a hand-dyed fabric that is extremely finely woven yet strong and comes in sections of approximately 2 foot by 2 foot. There are two colour choices: Green and Brown and the netting is priced at £3.50.

You can see how it appears on the 15mm model bunker below:



To give you an idea how good value this item is we compared it to the exact same scale-model netting which retails at 10Euros for 30cm x 30cm - which equates to almost £27.00 if we had priced accordingly!

The netting is easy to use and can be draped, rolled and fixed rigid which makes it ideal for camouflage netting over obstacles, bunkers and buildings as well as netting rolled onto vehicles or even just draped over gun barrels.

Al though specifically chosen to be compatible with 15mm wargames it is also great at 20mm, 25mm, 30mm and even 54mm and higher.
