Muffler Washers - though a little putty will fill in the holes on a
standard 
washer AND add a little bit to the weight. I always stick infnatry
figures 
down with white glue BECAUSE it's EASY to get them off when you
inevitably 
have to re-base. White glue to stick them down, I use "Tacky" Glue from
the 
craft shop where I buy my acrylic paints in the tole paint department at
as 
little as .50/ for four to eight ounce bottles You really can create
just 
about any color on a pallet if you try. But use one coat of glue to
stick 
them down and once the miniature is finished another thick coat to flock
and 
disguise the figure base and I have yet to have one come off of a
well-stored 
base. ( I have lost a lot of bases from my old REvell 1/72nd miniatures
which 
I use heavily for Napoleonics, ECW and Moderns - though not so badly on
the 
multi-figure stands which I put on matting board.
