Hold down chains

[nicebutdim]

Hi all. Has anyone managed to obtain reasonably cheap scale chains? The kind of stuff I mean is what would be used for holding items (diggers, vehicles etc) onto flat bed wagons. Uk suppliers preferable, if there is some.
Many thanks,
Tim

I considored raiding Mrs M's jewellery box , but I decided the consequences would have been too great !

Thanks Ross, I'll give that a go

I had that thought too, until I remembered the cats face after he'd been castrated. I don't want to suffer the same fate

How about P&J Models 'Load restraints' (code W30) available from PPS, and others, I bought some recently and reckon they're great. They come with a lost-wax cast brass lever toggle, and the chains area actually tensioned from underneath with a spring. No pic unfortunately.

Cornwall model boats have a good web catalog, all sorts of useful things and some of the boat bits look good for loads as well,​
