Storage of New BFP Counters - Ideas?

[fwheel73]

Since Cobra and now BFP#3 we have many new counters 1/2" & 5/8" types to use and store. Cujo has developed a xls Plano organization for the BFP#3 counters which is rather nice [assuming he will post it soon]. I modified Cujo's placement of the LMG,MMG & HMGs by putting them in with the proper colored units--Axis/Allied minors--plano since they are easy to distinguish from the MMP SW counters. If anyone has a method they find useful I'd be glad to see it, particularly your plano storage designs.

If the folks at BFP have the complete list of upcoming new counters we might as well get them all organizied now and not have to wait till they are produced!!:laugh:

Hey Mike, shoot that thing to me and I'll include it with all of the other organizational tools out on the Texas-ASL Download section.

I don't punch then until I use them. Much easier to store. And they don't mess with your storage sysem or make it harder to find often used counters. I still haven't punched many of those weird British AFVs that are never used or most of my Romanian and Hungarian 5/8" counters. The only nationality that is almost fully punched is the Germans.

Rob,
Very good idea.... except.... I already did it.:OHNO: Least I know where they are at. Now I did get an extra BFP#3 which I won't punch till I need it!

My "ziplock bag" temporary storage system works until I find suitable "hard plastic" storage devices.

For those looking for an organizational scheme for their Blood and Jungle counters, Mike Cadiuex has graciously provided his spreadsheet for suitable for Plano 3701s. Just head on over the Texas-ASL website in the Download section.

I'll also upload to the Download section on the forum.
