Well, you're a bit late for what I currently do.  Taken off
a  list suggestion my FT minis and bases are seperate.
I went to the hobby store and bought some square brass
tubing, the tubing on the ship fits inside the tubing
attached to the base.  When I am done playing the two
pieces come apart and go into a Plano tackle box.  One
of the nice things is I only needed to make about a dozen
bases since I really don't expect to see more than this
in a fleet.

I'm currently trying to figure out how to transport the big
UN ship.  I'm basing it the same but those big crossed
wings make things a bit more difficult.  Oh well, probably
back to cutting foam.  My FSE fleet was much easier. :)
