Tables, chairs, you know the drill – anything to add detail to a set. I'm doing pirates, but some of this will work with Old West and other periods as well. I've never seen this stuff in 15s – know of a manufacturer?

Musket makes a set of 15mm building accessories (FST 1090), and this is their description:

Wheels, crates, sacks, barrels, buckets, anvil, ladder, axe, stumps, watertrough, tools, etc. Everyday items you need to add extra details to your houses ane other buildings, stores, blacksmith shop, farm, etc.

Peter Pig makes an HQ set in their WWI line that has tables and chairs. Frontline makes some nice sets of stacked lumber and boxes. I got those from RLBPS.

I have picked up several good sets of crates and the like by going and looking at any model railroad shop. Because those items come in so many sizes you can use both N and HO scale. I also find that you can get allot more for less money than if you go for sets made by other companies for wargaming.

Over the past 25+ years I have seen several companies with these. Not near as many as you can find in 25mm but they are around.

JR miniatures used to have some. Check the battleHonors WW2 Quality Casting range and see what are in the accessory packs.

Musket Miniatures (Colorado) had an accessory pack for a store that had some interesting items"…Wheels, crates, sacks, barrels, buckets, anvil, ladder, axe, stumps, watertrough, tools, etc. Everyday items you need to add extra details to your houses ane other buildings, stores, blacksmith shop, farm, etc"

They also had a British Colonial 'bisket box' wall.
