I don't own any of these bases, but I do think they are the nicest looking ones on the market today. I love the irregular edges, they REALLY do make a huge difference in the look on the table (at least from the photos I've seen!).

This is very clever idea but I don't understand the need for chamfering.

Hi Bobgnar
The edge of a chamfered base would be flush with the playing surface while an unchamfered base would have a lip around it.

Aesthetically I prefer to chamfer mine, but it's not compulsory. ;-) It's always been my intention to disguise the edge of my bases. A chamferred edge is less than 1mm think. On my most recent minis I've gone further, flocking the edges of the base to help disguise them further.

The above minis are based on the same base style as the circular ones- I hope to get them in the shop next week.
