Just Bases is a British company that has been going since 1993 and can be find in South Devon. Just Bases produces oddly enough various types of bases from various materials in order for you to display your vignettes, dioramas, and models.
Just Bases have an ample supply of just about any base type you require and is happy to produce one of items and sizes. Their bases are listed as Standard, Recessed, and Shaped bases using MDF, Oak, or Mahogany. Also in Just Bases range of products are plinths made from Beech, Oak, or Mahogany in a number of designs, sizes, and shapes.

This next item really caught my eye and that is Perspex domes which are available in two sizes with the bases made from Mahogany and finished in tarmac, concrete, wood or wood veneered MDF or timber. There are also the more commonly seen oblong Perspex cases from Just Bases.

MDF turn tables are available from Just Bases and while only one size is currently listed on the their website I saw two sizes at the IPMS Salisbury Show on Saturday, they are finished with Formica to make cleaning easy. I checked the movement of these against some other turn table on show at this event and while slightly more expensive in my opinion they are better and yes I bought one.

Lastly available from Just Bases are a selection of items for you to use in dioramas and vignettes. These are a available as;
Grey scatter in 3 grades
Red scatter in two grades
Sand
Snow
Also available within this range is;
Rubberised horse hair
Teddy bear fur (for grass tufts)
Spray adhesive

Ola darren. Nice find. I checked their website and they do have nice stuff and also for really nice prices. However on their how to order page is the message that they do not ship outside the UK. Which I personally think is a bit of a pity. I think they could land a much bigger customer base when they do ship to the rest of the world. I alone would be game for several of their bases and plinths

Robert when I spoke to the owner yesterday that did not come up however I am sure that if you asked, the owner may help you out on that score. I particularly like the domes and the beech wood plinths. I suspect that this has been put in place due to postage costs but if you are willing to pay the postage rates I am sure something could be sorted out.

Ola Darren I will send the good man an email to see what can be sorted out. I think its more then normal I have to pay the shipping. Standard practice pretty much everywhere I buy. I particularly like his standard bases in oak and the other wood. I like the grain that is visible also the plinths in those woodsorts are nice
