Futhark DM Screen Ledges 2-Pack ($10)

These ledges pretty straightforward, with a hook to hang them over your screen, up to eight pegs that can hold tokens (usually to identify conditions, but anything round and hollow will do) and then a protruding shelf to hold miniatures. The advantage of something like this is it's both transparent and portable, so you can quickly see through the shelf if you covered up something important, and if you need to read it you can just slide it around without dislodging the miniatures and ring indicators. If you want less space for miniatures and more pegs, you can use all eight. I particularly like that the shelves have a lip, so when you move things quickly the miniatures stay secure.

Legendary Gamer Coffee Mug ($20)

This is a legendary item, with two ways to wield is: as a soulbound item (+135 Intellect, usually there are less slots for soulbound items) or an offhand, which means you are not getting the most out of it (not much worse +130 Stamina, which I would argue is better than the soulbound slot!). It has "sockets" which are means of upgrading it: cream socket and sugar socket. Presumably you need both to get the +155 Haste bonus, which seems appropriate.

Haxtec Four Panel with Magnetic Pockets Screen ($30)

The inside of this DM screen is what really sets this apart. It's sturdy, with magnetic, transparent layers that let you easily slot in paper as you see fit. I have screens that allow paper to be slipped in but it's a pain to add and remove. This is much easier, and the magnetic layer makes it a cinch to add or remove new rules as needed.

King's Guard Knight Pen Stand ($40)

This medieval-style knight is an imposing nearly ten inches high. He's tricolor, with most of his armor metallic silver, both of his hands resting atop a greatsword. Weirdly, they're not on the pommel -- one hand is on the pommel (but sort of closed and resting over it) and the other is just...resting atop it. The armor is trimmed with gold, which really stands out, particularly the fleur-de-lis symbol on his greatsword and on the blood groove. Best of all his belt and sheath is a metallic bronze, which really helps break up the figure's appearance so it's not one big metallic slab.

I was looking at the picture of the DM Screen ledge without without scrolling down enough to read what it was and I thought it was going to be about condition circles of minis and stuff. I was thinking that the shelf would be something I was more interested in, and what a surprise it was to be what you were talking about. Thank you
 

I'm dying to know: does the Haxtec Four Panel Screen support the Futhark Ledges? After I realized what the ledges were (thanks, aco175), I thought, "but my GM screen can barely hold up against a sneeze."

It's a super simple concept: transparent plastic with hooks (for condition rings) and ledges (for miniatures). But it works really well, and you can slide it around or pick it up/move it if you need to. One of those things it seems like every screen should have as an accessory!

I got these at different times so I haven't personally tested it, but yes the Haxtec screens are sturdy for sure. Solid enough, along with the magnetic layer. My only concern as it may be a little too thick for the clip, but if I recall the plastic clips are bendable so you can make it work for most screens. Better picture if it helps:

Buy your DMs significant other something nice. Chances are they have to listen to endless rambling stories about the made up world and game recaps. Reward them.
