Do you use bingo chips for basing figures? |

Don't think I've ever seen them. My usual choices are: 1p coins for large skirmish games, I use sabots from Warbases when I need to rank them up. 25mm or 30mm repair washers for warbands for Frostgrave etc. Poker chips for bigger stuff, bought loads on clearance after the craze for poker sets faded. |

Use them for my "true 25mm" wild west figures. Got a ton of them after my Mother in law passed away. |

I bought a second hand collection from a guy who used bingo chips. I think the chips he used are way too large for the figure and, eventually, I will rebase but, if the chips were of a more reasonable size, I would leave them as is. |

No! UK 1p coins, occasionally 2p coins or straight onto lasercut MDF. |

No, but I've used tiddlywinks for 15mm. |

Well, they're sold in bulk at the teacher's store as "counting chips", but bingo chips, tiddly winks, counters … whatever. I get two different sizes: 1 inch for 28mm figures 3/4 inch for 15mm figures |

2p bases for 28mm (a bit large but I like the look) Now I am using 1 euro cent coins for 15mm. Crazy but it is cheaper to use coins rather than buy washers |

Bingo chips I use for casualty markers with appropriate figures for 28mm Nap/ACW |

Never thought about them Could but I tend to use coins instead |
