About this 3D model

A set of bases useful for many popular 15-18mm historical wargames. These bases have 8x1mm rebates which readily accept any of my pre-based miniatures. Magnets: These bases have holes which can accept a 3x1 or 3x1.5mm magnet, allowing the use of a simple sheet metal (tinplate or steel) sabot to keep your formations together and make movement on the table more convenient when fielding large units. Installation of magnets is simple; providing minimal shrinkage and effective washing of the printed part, magnets should be a snug push fit. If printing at 50 microns, there will be a four layer thick membrane at the base of the hole which neatly contains the magnet while allowing for it to be very close to metal surfaces below. Printing: The bases are offered in two variants, one for FDM printers, and another set with a beveled underside which allows them to be printed directly against the build plate of an SLA printer (the bevel helps to counteract the 'elephant's foot' effect). Sizes: All bases are 3mm thick, and have the following dimensions: 20x25mm Single miniature (Commanders etc.) 20x25mm Two miniatures (Skirmish base) 20x25mm Two rank, two file 30x25mm Two rank, three file 40x25mm Two rank, four file 60x25mm Two rank, six file
