"Engine" Treasure Token for Forbidden Desert

Designer's Description

Unfortunately, our brand new Forbidden Desert board game was missing one of the four "treasure" tokens - the engine (or at least that's what I think it is).

Rather than go through the whole returns process for a couple of grams worth of plastic, I measured up the "socket" in the boat, referenced a few photos of the game online and from a friend, and came up with this.

It's not identical to the original, as I had to make a couple of allowances for the 3D printability. Still, it's close enough, and most importantly it plugs into the "socket" on the boat.

Since these things tend to go missing just through regular playing, I figured it was worth sharing.

I have no plans to make the other 3 tokens... unless we lose any of them.

I printed this in 0.06mm layers ("extra fine" on Cura) to get the level of detail I was after. The test print was in green (to check fit etc), but I used a "silver" PLA for the final print.

NOTE : Cura may report that there are some problems with the model when slicing (some internal faces etc), but it prints just fine.
