Have you contacted Sarissa?  They may be able to help.

Warbases are very economical, I use them for custom stuff all the time.

In the US I have used Litko (Also got quotes from Renaissance Ink too but for various reasons chose Litko in the past.)

Gracias,

No. I used fenris. Ian is swamped with Cthulhu stuff though. Odd he's usually good about being in contact.

Laserbases.be, decent prices.
He also sells bases with magnets. They fit in a hole in the base, so no more fuzz with magnetic tape  :)

How do the movement trays with magnets work? I don't read Dutch and the pictures weren't much help either...

I already magnetize my bases, but I'd need sabot trays they'd stick onto....

Strange, I see the description of the products in English.

I believe the skirmish trays are built up of a magnetic sheet underside on which you glue the upper frame (with cutouts for the bases). Those bases have a hole cut in the middle in which fit a small rare earth magnet.
Dunno about the regimental trays. I'm guessing those baseplates are mdf for strength. I'll have to ask him.

Or if you want to contact him yourself : info at laserbases dot be

Andy Slater (of Terragenesis fame) has a custom lasercutting service over at Archeotech; last year I had him do me up some Russian Orthodox crosses after a discussion here on LAF.

I did a bit of a writeup on the blog; [urlhttp://www.warbard.ca/2013/02/26/wargamers-with-frickin-lasers/]Part I of Wargamers with Frickin' Lasers[/url] and Part II.
