40mm round bases: common questions

Where can I check base sizes unit by unit?

Our Warhammer base size guide, Age of Sigmar base size guide and Bolt Action base size guide list recommended base sizes by unit or creature type.

Should I choose bases or base bottoms?

Plywood and acrylic are the bases your miniature stands on. Magnet and flexible steel are base bottoms: thin, peel-and-stick layers that go under a base so it holds to steel- or magnet-lined storage and trays. Many players order both in 40mm.

Do you make other sizes?

Yes. See the related sizes below, or our miniature base sizes reference. For a size we don't stock, BaseMaker cuts any dimension you need.

Store them magnetized

Painted miniatures on magnet base bottoms held on a flexible steel liner inside a clear storage case The same storage case held upside down, the miniatures still stuck to the steel liner

Add a magnet base bottom and line any case with LITKO flexible steel sheet. Your minis stay put, even upside down.

Already storing on magnet sheet? Use flexible steel base bottoms instead: steel sticks to magnet with no polarity to match.

Nicely cut edges. A few scuffs on surface, but nothing distracting. I used Weld On #3 liquid acrylic plastic (plexiglass) solvent. Place a small drop on bottom of feet of figure and wait a few seconds, then press figure firmly on base for a clean installation without solvent coming out from beneath figure’s foot. And, fast shipping! Highly recommended.

Outstanding product. Withstands abuse and remains attached. The magnet is wonderful too.

I bought these magnetic bases to hold trees mounted on small, rectangular, steel stands. When playing wargames, the trees would sometimes fall over. I tested one of the bases with a tall tree. It would not fall over when attached to the wide, circular base. I will have to flock the magnetic bases while being careful not to cover the area where the steel stand touches the base. However, I am satisfied that this will resolve my problem.

The 40mm magnets for the base and work good. There have been a couple of them where the pull on the magnets is not as strong as the others but other than that no issues with the 40mm round magnets.

They have no magnetic polarity. The 30mm and 50mm I ordered are great but these 40mm ones dont magnatize to anything. Useless

I wanted something with a bit more magnetic adhesion for a multi figure command base. These are a bit stronger than the normal basing material and should work just fine for multi figure or larger figure bases.

Slim, lightweight, and altogether wonderful bases.

Shipping was fast and everything arrived undamaged, which is something given how thin these bases are. Buy some, you won't regret it.
