The Right Tools for Every Build.

Great miniatures start with the right tools. Whether you're clipping your first Space Marine from the sprue, pinning a heavy metal Warjack, sculpting custom details with green stuff, or finishing a display-quality base for competition, the tools and supplies you work with shape every step of the process. Wargaming hobby tools are one of those categories where quality genuinely matters — a clean cut from sharp clippers saves cleanup time, a good file removes mould lines without gouging detail, and a precision hobby knife makes conversions feel effortless. Boreal Gaming carries a curated selection of modelling tools, basing materials, and hobby supplies for wargamers and miniature hobbyists across the Niagara region and Canada.

Our hobby tool and supply range covers the essentials and beyond. For assembly and modelling, we stock sprue cutters and precision clippers, hobby knives with replaceable blades, needle files and sanding sticks, pin vises and drill bits for pinning heavy joints, sculpting tools, and modelling putties like green stuff and milliput for gap filling, conversions, and custom work. For basing and terrain, we carry texture pastes, basing sand and gravel, static grass, grass tufts, scenic flock, and ready-made basing kits that take a model from tabletop-ready to display-worthy in minutes. Glues round out the range — plastic cement for polystyrene kits, super glue for resin and metal, and PVA for basing and terrain work. We source from trusted hobby brands including Games Workshop, Army Painter, Vallejo, and Green Stuff World so you're working with tools that match the standard of the miniatures themselves.

Every game system we carry benefits from the right tools and supplies. Whether you're assembling a Warhammer 40,000 army, basing an Age of Sigmar warband, building terrain for Kill Team boards, or detailing miniatures from your favourite tabletop RPG, the tools are the same — and getting them right makes every project more enjoyable. Pair your tools with the right miniature paints to complete your hobby setup from build to brush.

Boreal Gaming is growing its wargaming hobby supply range to support the modelling and painting community taking root across Niagara. If you're new to the hobby and not sure what you need beyond a box of miniatures, our team can walk you through a starter toolkit — it's simpler than it looks. Shop online with local pickup available, or stop into our Niagara location to see the range in person.
