Does anyone make slottabase-style hexagon-shaped bases, but without the slot? 1" from side to side.

Gf9 used to, still on ebay from time to time.
Litko?

You know, I think wood bases would work just as well. grin

EM4 has 30mm hex bases, Battletech style (I think)

Shogun miniatures

The ones shown have a magnetic base – if you don't want that, send him an email and see what he can do.

If you want really thick bases, like some of the slottas, then wood is probably the best bet. Any company that uses laser cutting can probably make them for you

EM4 has 30mm hex bases…

Thanks for the info, but that's the last place I'd ever buy anything. Bunch of deadbeats.

Yes, Litko does. You have to specify that you want them 1" flat side to flat side.

Reaper makes them too, but they have a lip around the top. I think they're used for Battletech.

em4 is now under new ownership, I believe, so maybe give them another chance?
