Looking for people's views on the different movement/basing trays out there. I have used GWs (for 8 inf /2 mounted) but have a load more to get. I have seen both mdf and resin on ebay, including a neat tray that would base a whole infantry box.

Just looking for opinions.

Anyone know of a supplier that would do custom trays for the various artillery pieces ?

thx

I bought a couple from totallysysemscenic. They have resin bases designed for some of the artillery along with the standard 2 and 8 slot ones. They seem to be good (obviously they dont come painted).

I was very lucky, cause I could buy a lot of infantry MT for cheap.
But I didn't have enough infMT, so I made some. I used hard paper. I don't know its name in English. Its grey, and its 1 mm thick.
I used 2 layers, I cut wholes, so it works perfectly.

Card stock? Cardboard?
Those are the only two I can think of, but it doesn't look like either of those was what you used. Nice homemade tray, by the way.

I dont know. In my language we call it "grey-cardboard".
Its a strong paper material. You can find it in art store, paper store. Here is a pics:

This is the best by far. You can contact the guy who makes them to customize your own base.

Thanks to all for responses, I'll check out those links !

Sorry for hijacking, but does anyone have tips on how to cut homemade trays straight. Mine always get 1-2 mm deviations, which make a huge misalignment when you put six trays with the same error next to each other .

Well, I dont know how do you cut, but try to do perfect job. Measure with ruler exactly, then cut it whit a knife next to a metal ruler. This is my method.
