Dux bases

still trying top get my head round dux bases - the only difference I've ever seen on bases is that some seem a little thicker up against the inner base

eg -


so is this a dux base ????

i have been wondering the same thing as well paul , i dont get it either

by the way good choice of team

DUX bases are HW bases that are mistakes in the casting process.



They generally have a little warping, but the profile is generally lower. Hense they are easier to chip with. Usually found on late 60's early 70's teams.

are they easy to spot Ian ?

would you have a photo like you did with different player types that would show this some how

I've always wondered about this as well lads. I'd be interested to see an illustrated comparison between the two.

Here you go lads...

Normal Subbuteo HW base on the left. HW DUX base on the right.

I use the DUX bases for playing with if possible.

excellent thanks Ian

Cheers, Ian

So the thickness if viewed from above is the same?
