The Litko markers were acquired a while ago and I routinely use Mastermind pegs in any event so have not really needed to go down the DIY route.<br /><br />Good shout though.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-7531304445210497932018-05-22T21:02:21.411+01:002018-05-22T21:02:21.411+01:00I make splash markers out of wood screws coated in...I make splash markers out of wood screws coated in acrylic filler and glued onto a washer or mdf base.

The range may have changed since I got mine - it must have been three or four years ago.<br /><br />I will contact Erik to see what else he has although to be honest I don't really need much else for this particular project.<br /><br />It would be nice to see some MDF types available from somewhere as they would be a much cheaper option.<br /><br />All the best,<br /><br />DCDavid Crookhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02497436789811496047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4472889370304077924.post-41868157892493834672018-05-22T10:57:38.421+01:002018-05-22T10:57:38.421+01:00Hi Lee,
