Gaffer Tape for Terrain Board Edges

[Wargamer Dave]

I had read about gaffer tape (essentially a thick cloth tape used by stage hands) as a way to protect terrain board edges. For the hell of it I bought some on Amazon a couple months ago and had my first opportunity to use it on a diorama board.

I, of course, didn't take any pictures but I have to say it:
1. was very easy to use
2. looks really nice - I did a black tape directly on pink 2" styrofoam
3. can be cut to cover contours of hills or other elevations
4. has a nice texture - "richer" feel/look than say black duct tape or painting the edge of the boards

This was the one I used if anyone wants to experiment with it:

Comes in many colors, too.  Personally, I'd use duct tape - the camoflauge variation.
