Gonna post a link to this on the Privateer forums. Everyone's been going nuts over plank bases since the Sea Dogs came out.

These are just absolutely cool, IMO. I think I might pick a few up.

How do you get your minis on these bases ??
is it a cutting the slotta off, pin the feet and glue kind of thing ?
because Im really interested in using *beautiful* bases for miniatures but I dont want to ruin it (or my hands) by cutting a hole the size of the *slotta* .

You said it :). Cut the slotta, pin and superglue. Works like a charm.

problem is, dont know how to pin, have no tools to do it, and since my teacher in technic class decided to give me 6s just for trying to prevent me from even coming close to all the technical tools Im afraid to even try it ;)
or is it really simple ?

Pinning in and of itself is pretty easy. and since you would be pinning on the base, its a bit easy.

All you need are some flush sprue cutters to remove the tab, then a pin vise, a small drill bit (I use 1/32") and a paper clip.

1) figure out where you want him to be posed on the base.
2) find the area with the most amount of metal for you to use to base.
3) drill a small hole in the area with the pin vise, you want to go into the foot a few millimeters, but be careful not to drill through the part (if you do you can hide it with greenstuff, but not punching through is always better
4) straighten out paperclip, and apply a little bit of superglue into the hole.
5) Insert paperclip in the hole allow to set
6) Paint model, use pin vise to hold your overly long pin.
7) prep and paint base.
8) take pin vise and drill small hole where you will place model.
9) depending on base type (if its smooth bottomed or not) you can place model on base through the pin hole. If smooth bottomed, trim the pin to sit flush with bottom of base, apply glue to ping and insert in hole. If not smooth bottomed you can make a bit of a hook on the bottom of the and glue that part down for added strength.
