Do you guys have any recommendation for manufacturer (3d printing included) of hollow / concave bases without the wide lip? I ordered some 25mm and 32mm from Green Stuff World https://www.greenstuffworld.com/en/hobby-accessories/1624-hollow-plastic-bases-black.html but they have rather limited offering of sizes. They don't make round bases larger than 32mm. After some searching on Google, I found that there should also be hollow bases from Beveled Edge but those don't seem to be widely available in UK and they are quite expensive - almost 10 GBP for a single 105x70 seems to be quite lot considering that it is not even a scenic base.

I don't own 3d printer myself so can't print them myself.

Have you considered making them yourself? Get a circle cutter and some plasticard; use the cutter to remove the top of a citadel base then superglue a circle of plasticard to the bottom et voila hollow bases.

This is what I had to do when I had the same need for hollow bases and saw the same struggle with getting hold of them in the UK.

Could try the bases that Wyrd sells? They don't have that huge lip that PP's do.

they have round lip(similar to what you're looking for) with various size and patterns.
