    G'Day Peter, You've got me stumped sir...
    Not sure what a "modelers tie down" actually is!
    Could you please give some more information upon application and or even a photo/description, thank you.
    Cheers, Peter

    Hi A miniature version of a truck ratchet tie down to fasten goods. I think they might look good to hold projects on our models.
    Cheers Peter

    Search the numerous specialty on-line hobby stores. It is truly amazing to see the numerous model accessories available - i.e. seat belts at various modeling scales. tank tracks etc. It's all in using the right search terms - try - "scale modelling supplies load binders" or "Scale model truck parts and accessories"

    I though surely one of them will carry "load binders" & they do -
