www.miniaturescenery.com/SeriesPage.asp?Code=ACCI can't rave on enough about how good this set is for not only paint storage but tool storage too, I have two of the paint racks and one corner tool storage unit, and Tim will tell you how good they are as he's seen them firsthand. Well now they have gone and added a corner paint rack and a parts rack to complete the set!! I've stuck a deal with a friend to paint some more minis for him to get me the ones I want, so that's cool! The sets come on thin MDF sprues much like plastic kits and have to be cut off and assembled, and I recommend pva'ing the joints as they suggest just to keep everything nice. GW clippers worked fine taking the parts off, and not counting the time for the glue to dry they went together quickly, I managed to do all 3 of mine in a night. They can be painted too so you can math them into any hobby enviroment. The link I have given above is for GBP prices and they can be bought over here in the UK from Terrascenic Online. If you're outside the UK here's the link for the main home page, Miniature Scenery.com just click the display prices for.....whatever country in the top right hand corner to get the prices correct, and to see what wholesalers have them in your country at the bottom of the page.

Yes I have seen them first hand and they are very good. I may even have to invest in a set myself in the future as the paint station is a bit restrictive for paint storage.

Well I 'll tell you what if you can get an extra set somehow I'll do a trade for all those lovely minis that I have got lined up for e-bay.

How big a set are we looking at?

Ideally for me two of the paint racks on their own would suffice maybe two of the corner tool storage rack would be a bonus. Looking at their pricing I think that I may just order them from the online store after Chrimbo as I get paid just after that.

Yeah, might be the best bet, or you'd be losing out on the deal.

Got the new corner rack and parts rack with sliding drawer. Had to have a little move around to set it all up, but it's better this way around for me anyway. Very nice new pieces that went together rather quickly and easily, although this time instead of using PVA to glue the joints I used Gel Superglue, this sped the assembling time up no end.

Excellent set up mate look forward to admiring this in person, when we finally get the house sorted out and I get a better painting arrangement then I can plan better what sort of storage I'll need.

Hey man, those look amazingly handy!
Or at least, a lot better than keeping everything in drawers like I do at the mo - finding the paint you want is such a hassle when you have to pick one up individually each time you want to see what colour it is! Pure hell I tell ya.
Might be getting some of these then, thanks for the heads up!

Wow--that is a great set up! I'll check into it once I'm in the new house hopefully around mid March.

It's working really well, and I'm really happy with the way it's all set out now, everything is at hand.
