Does anyone else know if it is possible to get round 40k 25mm bases without the little dimple in the centre?

The 40mm bases dont have them. But i want to make set of counters to represent wounds and FNP etc. But the dimples are in the way. I just wanted flat counter to paint on with marking colour coded to my armies.

If such a thing does not exist ill either use GS or plasticard discs over the top but would rather avoid the work if I can.

Cheers

Hasslefree sells bases without dimples. Also they don't have the same depth of cup underneath, so they might make better counters anyway.

They dont have any smooth 25mm but could be worth a look if a cant find any.

Glue a sheet of paper over the entire top of the base with CA making sure that the CA saturates the paper. Once it dries, it's a simple matter to trim the paper back to the edge of the base with a razor knife. I've used this technique in the past to cover the slot in a slotta-base and the result is a nice smooth top to the base.
