Designer's Description

This insert was made with usage of GitHub - dppdppd/The-Boardgame-Insert-Toolkit: This OpenSCAD library was created to make it easy to create board game inserts with lids for either horizontal or vertical storage, without any programming required.

Peurto Rico board game is a classic. This insert allows vertical storage of the game with no components mixing. Additionally it provides faster game setup.

When starting new game, most time consuming is setting up buildings board. I decided to make this a lot easier. With this insert all you have to do is just take lids off of buildings trays and place those trays on top of buildings board.

Whole insert is designed so it has 30mm of height. If you don't want your trays to move inside the box, think about filling free space with something. I didn't want to enlarge insert, to not make it too heavy.

There are no labels where to put things, but in print profile I have described which trays contain what. Photos should also help. I found labels here to be optional.

Print profile contains one optional print plate, which is covers for buildings not being used in game. Either you want to use 2nd expansion or cover buildings from red expansion, just place this rectangle over buildings you don't want to use during gameplay.

IMPORTANT NOTE: insert was designed for my copy of Puerto Rico, which is Alea's 3rd edition. Size of components should not differentiate much between versions (except incoming Awaken Realms deluxe edition). In 1st edition though buildings board has vertical layout, not horizontal, thus my buildings pre-setup may not be working in this case.
