(...) Those are both really good ideas. I've actually built walls with clips and 1x1 stud bricks to hold the shields, but they've always been slapdash. Perhaps I need to build a dedicated armory for my shields/weapons. Thanks for the advice! james (24 years ago, 13-Apr-01, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle, lugnet.storage)
