Kingdom Death Monster Survivor Gear Grid

This is my design for a gear grid which can be easily moved and stored away.

• can hold sleeved gear cards

• gear cards are fixed in the grid in a way that moving the grid or storing it away is easy

• top part is printed in a different color and can be changed easy between different grids. My miniatures are using a magnetized colored base which fits to the corresponding gear grid, so it's easy to identify the grid with the model (this is especially helpful for new players or if I do not have a good fitting model for the loadout)

• it should fit the original gear grid with its rules and fist & tooth stats readable

• [V2] it should help me in tracking some common status effects, like Knockdown

• I used magnets to make everything flexible and the usage nice and easy
• of course they are optional or you can use less if you want

• you need following magnets for each grid you print:
• 4 magnets 8x2mm for the base

• 12 magnets 8x1mm (4 for layer 2, 8 for layer 3)

• pay attention on the polarization. Make sure to make it consistent for all your grids so they stack on each other and the top layer is interchangeable

• layer 3 can be printed in two colors. In my case just the first layer (top of the gear grid holder) is printed in a color, for everything else I used black

• layer 3 stops during printing for adding magnets. Use a drop of super glue to avoid losing the magnet when the nozzle prints over it

• parts of layer 2 are printed with overhangs
• during my first print I completly forgot that the part where the gear cards are slotted in are printed in mid air without any helping structures. However it worked and I really like the look how it turned out so I kept it that way (and I don't know how this could be solved without the need of introducing another layer)

Two profiles belong to this Version

• Grid with some color changes and stops for magnet inserts
• Layer 3 exists in two versions depending on if you need the sliders or not

• Sliders are printed with 0.2er Nozzle for better quality. I tried 0.4, it might work but the result was not that good

• glue 8x2mm magnets to layer 2

• glue 8x1mm magnets into layer 1

• glue layer 2 on layer 1

• layer 3 stacks in place with magnets

I did it following way:

• glue magnets into layer 1 (4x in the middle, the left slots are not needed - see example picture in instruction). Wait until glue is dry
• make sure the polarization fit to the magnets already added during print for layer 3

• layer 3 facedown on the table (to have a plain surface with sliders later)

• fit layer 2 on 3 (no glue needed)

• put in sliders and magnets (no glue needed)
• now you have a plain surface for the sliders and magnets already match the layer 3 polarization

• pay attention on the slider orientation (picture is added - of course you can do your own variation in terms of order)

• put glue on layer 2 and bring it together with layer 1
• pay attention to not put any glue where the sliders are located, so they are still moving afterwards. I added some markings in the instruction pictures where I used glue.

• [2026-03-30] Version 2 added
• it supports sliders to track 4 different status effects (Knockdown, Terrified, Doomed and an empty one to be flexible)

• additional cut added to improve readability of affinities from all angles

• the design was improved on several parts which should increase the printing quality and holds the gear cards better in place when moving the grid

• layer 1 already contains additional magnet spaces (currently not in use, just for potential future plans, so I don't have to print everything new)

• Version 1 and 2 are not compatible to each other. You need to print everything new if you want
