So I started to play in tinkercad. looking at my miniatures, I think I can get a standing infantry figure on a base that is just a bit under 10mm x10mm. Then create a tray with holes that will fix a 10mm x 10mm base. I am going to attempt to print these bases off and see what it looks like. The Regular infantry trays are 4x2 and the Militia trays are 5x2. This gives each group its own tray, I also made an experimental skirmish tray assuming the skirmishers are using the same basing. Instead of a rectangle like the others, this is on an oval with the figures placed irregularly so they didn't look to be in formation. I continued on and made an artillery tray as well to keep the gunners on the same base as the gun as well.
Cavalry I still need to sort out. I tried something similar just bigger for the cavalry. These are 4x2 trays. I have no idea if i will like this experiment or not.
I just purchased some new resin in the hopes I can get the printer up and running again. I have no idea if I will be able to work on this and I need to clean my resin vat before anything can happen. Hopefully it will be back up and running in short order. If I can get that up and running, I am eyeing some Henry Turner figures to round out some holes in my collection. I am trying to get this sorted out to game Briar Creek (March 3rd 1779). Lets see how this goes.
