Tomculb Posted Wednesday at 05:23 PM #1 Posted Wednesday at 05:23 PM Several posts on this board reveal some great ideas for storing and especially organizing quantities of wood strips. Often I find it useful to put say all 2mm thick strips in one tube or bag, then separate in that tube or bag the 4mm and 5mm wide strips using rubber bands. But a year later when I need a 2 x 4 strip, the rubber bands have disintegrated into hard brittle pieces. Does anyone know if there is such a thing as a durable rubber band, that will serve its purpose more or less indefinitely? I haven't found one. catopower and Keith Black 2 Tom ________________________________________________________________________________________ Current build: Grecian -- Vanguard Models; Half Hull Planking Project -- NRG Completed ships & boats: Shackleton's Endurance -- OcCre; USS Constitution cross section -- Model Shipways; Joshua Slocumb’s Spray -- BlueJacket Yacht America -- Model Shipways; Brig Niagara -- Model Shipways; J Boat Endeavor -- Amati; Peterboro Canoe -- Midwest Models; Bluenose -- Artesania Latina Other: Wright Flyer -- Model Airways; Sopwith Camel -- Hasegawa
En-Dan Posted Wednesday at 06:30 PM #2 Posted Wednesday at 06:30 PM Hi Tom I like to use cuts of used bicycle tires. They cost nothing and can be obtained in a multitude of diameters from a local repair bike shop 🙂 Kind regards Keith Black and Tomculb 1 1
