Default Your Pick for Best Vintage Small Board

Can I ask what everyone's choice is for the best small board, is it the 500?

I have a Miggle Super Bowl board and it's not that great, makes way to much noise ( I have tried every trick known on this forum to quiet it) and I am not thrilled with the overall quality either. Please steer your advice away from this board.

I am looking for a small board to do some initial tweaking and testing on, then transfer the tweaked bases/figures over to my 308 and finish them off on a big board.

Anyone using small boards for anything, please let me know what the best on I should look for is.

All help given to me is and has always been appreciated, believe me.

It's the only one I have, still trying to get pre tweaked bases, a board and some new Philly Teams.

Yes, that is what I am doing, I tweak and test on my vintage 620, then finish the tweak on my 308. I play most games on my 308 so I want to do a final tweak on that board.

I am looking for a smaller board to do the initial test and tweak, just for the reason it takes up less space and is easier to get out and put away.

Shabby,
Most 500 or 510 boards run pretty good , especially for tweaking. Pick one up on ebay probably fairly cheap and also they are not real loud.
A couple guys and I that are in the league here use one then transfer to our 308's or bigger board and it works out fine.

Default Hands Down

...my choice is this SB Board. I wish they would just replicate this EXACT configuration and stretch it into a Big Board!!!

Ditto Jimbo. I have the same one and its the board I use to evaluate some of my tweaking, weight, and all my experiments on for the metal board. Its really is smooth and nice. Its just so tiny and my kids would dent it if they used it just like they dented my 620 (but that was ok because it was S-L-O-W anyways)
