I wish I had the time to invest in stuff like that. I particularly like how he put magnets on the ships for the stands.
The magnets are quick and easy. I saw this page a few weeks ago and it inspired me. My entire AW and XW fleets were fitted with magnets and I did about 12 pegs for each game in about 3 hours for less than $10. He even inspired me to start repainting my ships...
I couldn't tell for sure from the images - are they just gimbal mounts? Those are really cool. I've seen them on model WWI/II planes, but I hadn't thought to put them in starships...
It is a disk magnet on the ship and a ball bearing on the stand. I want to say the magnets are 3/8 inch. I picked them up at Home Depot and the ball bearings at Menards.

Having played with your ships after the conversion, I can confirm it adds a dynamic feel to the normally bland positioning of the ships. Just be careful not to bump them, haha.
