War Game Boards & Tables
Professional Layout Services, the manufactuing division of Sherwood Models, Nottingham have been manufacturing model baseboards and tables for over twenty years. Our boards are suitable for all wargamers and table top game players from historical to Warhammer and Lord of the Rings. In fact they can be used for most role playing situations. We offer standard game boards manufactured to popular sizes for use individually or as modular units. We are happy to estimate on bespoke boards of all shapes and sizes from a variety of materials. We manufacture specialist boards of open frame construction to allow for minor and extreme variations in terrain. Boards can be supplied with legs as a war game table, or without legs for use as a game board on an existing table or trestles.
Standard Board Prices
If you require a specific bespoke size board or one for multi-level terrain please contact us.
Baseboards are constructed using the chosen top surface with a PSE soft wood metric 3"x1" or 2"x1" frame. All joints are PVA glued and screwed where appropriate. Optional extras include:
- Undercoating the boards with grey paint to act as a base for the scenery, as grey is the ideal basecoat colour for roads etc.
- Braced legs with or without adjustable feet.
- Castors to allow a board to be moved. Ideal on larger boards particularly when located in the home or garage.
- Engineers dowels for accurate alignment of baseboards.
- Flight case plastic corners on single boards to protect against sharp corners - ideal where children are walking near to or around the baseboard.
- Taped edges to cover the fixing screws on the outer edges - best used along with flight case corners.
