CARGO CONTAINERS 1
Even though they are essentially super-sized crates, do not be afeared. Scattering a few of these sturdy rectangular objects around your MagLev yard will make it feel more visually “complete”, and serve to block out large areas for line-of-sight. Or funnel ground movement into choke points ripe for a massacre. Okay, be afeared. Containers are like super-sized LEGO bricks of death.

And, they’re terrific for kit-bashing! Cut a couple linear viewports into one, and you’ve got yourself a bunker. Place two end-to-end, and they’re a mobile-deploy field laboratory. Pile them up and connect them with stairs and walkways from the Elevations set, and they’re a residential Stack from a dystopian future.

INCLUDES:
• 3 Containers

About TinkerTurf®
Created by lifelong wargamers, and veterans of the printed products and AAA videogame industries, TinkerTurf is designed to be sturdy, attractive, and affordable wargaming terrain. Each piece is precision-engineered and die-cut out of 2mm sturdy black-core board printed with gorgeous full-color themed textures. Assembly is quick and easy with normal white glue, and modular design allows for easy storage and virtually limitless setups. The result is great-looking terrain features of noticeable weight and heft that can stand up to hard campaigning for years to come. Terrain worth fighting for.

(Note: we recommend white PVA glue for assembly, along with small hobby clamps, as shown here - http://tinkerhousegames.com/tinkerturf/assembly/)

Excellent terrain option!

Beautiful, Sturdy, Cheap and easy to assemble! I totally recommend getting a few of the sets to suit your wargaming needs. The modular aspect of Tinkerturf is really a strong selling point in my book since I like to mix it up on my table layout.

Really good quality!

I picked these up for kill team because I needed some terrain and couldn’t justify spending $75 on the GW ones. The quality is actually really good and they’re way sturdier than I expected. As soon as they were built I went and ordered another set.

Affordable alternative to other diorama kits

For those of you looking to enhance scenery or dioramas with accessories such as containers or obstacles the TinkerTurf sets are a viable option at the price. These sets are designed for table top games but the containers make an adequate argument for use in larger scale modeling and dioramas. I purchased these sets to complement 1/12 or 6 inch figures and they fill the space nicely.The construction is sturdy and relatively easy with the downloadable PDF from the TinkerTurf site. Some assembly is required with glue but it is worth it for a rugged prop that can be used in a variety of ways. You can even repaint the containers to match your environment. I bought a second one for future projects since I was impressed with the first kit!

Budget Friendly Terrain

Great set of scatter terrain. Easy to assemble and parts seem well constructed. You really get a good amount of terrain for your money and the stuff looks great. I've bought a number of these kits and none of them have disappointed.

Buy a lot of them, its kind of the primary scatter structure currently

I own this product and at least one of everything they have produced recently (in abandoned theme) because I supported the company through their last Kickstarter project.The instruction for assembly are on the companies website.A little background: I have been following the company for years. I first bought the abandoned starter set on miniature market. I fell in love with the system. It's simple, sturdy, and looks great on the table for an industrial theme. It's exactly what I wanted. Selections were limited for a time but then they launched their Kickstarter for their 2.1 campaign. I dove headfirst. I bought what I could afford and when I received my order after a successful campaign, I spent the next 2 weeks building. other than my scratch built terrain its all I own, all I planned to own. I assembled so much of it that it fills a 6x4 foot gaming table wonderfully for Warhammer or dense enough for skirmish games like Warcaster and fills 2 large plastic storage tubs.What I mean is there are 2 large point of interest or center piece structures, The Mag Lev depo and the Commas Array. Otherwise there is no true line of site blocking, bulky structures. to stand a model on available as of the time of writing. I personally don't count the Guard towers due to size. if you place one in the middle of the board, without any walls, it wont block anything. There are the platforms in the starter sets but they are not solid and can see under them. Depending on your game they may not block line of sight.Assembly is easy, white school glue is all you need. I did find some cheap plastic alligator clamps were helpful, the company recommends them, But they are not required. It is all notch-in-hole, notch-in-notch, or face-to-face gluing. really simple. The company even labels their glue spots on the back face of face-to-face parts. Simple clear tape is required for this one, its do able without it but three times as frustrating.The Containers go together quickly. I assembled 12 kits in about 90 mins using an assembly line method. Unfortunately, that time only counts assembly and glue up and not punch out. I Do Not recommend stacking multiple kits on top of each other after matching the sheets of card stock up and pushing them through the other sheets. It works on a small scale but often can lead to bruised edges or the print separating from the board.
