It was Ochoin who mentioned that he thought to make Boats for Age of Sail Wargaming,and so I went on Ebay and found these very cheap metal Anchors & Wheels. I am always looking out for stuff that can,and could be used for scratch building projects,and these fit the bill. My thinking is, "Pirate Ships need Anchors & Wheels, Helm!" They should be 20 or 17mm. I intend putting these to good use,and thought I`d pass this information on to interested wargamers who might perhaps like to build or even convert boats for a small fleet for gaming.

If you Google, Anchor Charms,they can be seen there on the list of pictures,and you can go directly to the items. Don`t go on E Bay,and type that in,because you`ll get a shop with 50 or 60 pages.BB

Can anyone else see the Bear? Tinypics has some crossed wires and are posting incorrect pictures. This is the picture that I posted originally but got a Bear.BB

Sorry about this annoying problem it is way out of my control. As you can see in the last batch the cross beam can be given a slight twist and will end up quite a good looking anchor for a boat. BB
