Designer's Description

With the recent KS release of the game ‘Shallow Sea’ (that included both the the Nesting Season Expansion & Rare Fish mini-expansion) - I wanted a way to put it all in a single box and quicken setup. Success!

NOTE: This insert will also fit the upcoming retail base game version of Shallow Sea - to help keep the lids on you will need to keep/trim the cardboard pushout ‘leftovers’ and trim them ⅓ to only be under the two Sealife Tile trays

I've had to split this print up into three files (due to maybe some people not wanting them all and also licensing restrictions):

Token Holder - included here in the profile
Card Shuffler Insert - to help shuffling the smaller cards (listed as another profile entry) - **Note: this is just the insert - you'll need to also download the complete card shuffler at this link
Three differently sized wooden components holders - you can find them at this link

While the goal was ‘no lid lift’ - it became necessary in one corner (see photo) as the wooden tokens needed a bit more space to sit flat.

**Note: Keep the Rare Fish mini-expansion in its original bag - while I'm not a big ‘bags’ kinda guy (hence all of the 3D printing); I'm also ‘what makes best sense’.

With the recent release of the KS version of Shallow Sea (which also included the Nesting Season Expansion & Rare Fish mini-expansion) - I wanted to find a way to concatenate all into a single box and speed up setup/take-down. While there is a slight lid-lift in one of the corners (see photos at the 3D print link) due to the height needed for the wooden tokens - I think overall a success. Also included the card-shuffler insert to help shuffle the smaller cards (card-shuffler not included but linked). NOTE: This insert will also fit the upcoming retail base game version of Shallow Sea - to help keep the lids on you will need to keep/trim the cardboard pushout ‘leftovers’ and trim them ⅓ to only be under the two Sealife Tile trays You can download the files here
