Designer's Description
A compact dice box with lots of storage and other cool features:
- Enough space for 3 full sets plus a bunch of extra dice (including a dedicated bay for 12d6)
- Pretty small when closed, with no dice rattle thanks to foam inserts
- Quickly opens into the first configuration - with easy access to most frequently used dice and an included dice tray
- Can open further into the third configuration that reveals even more dice
- Includes “raiser rails” that let you bring up the dice to make them easier to grab during sessions
- All sections held together by rails and magnets, you can pick up the whole box even when fully opened
Box variants
There are 3 different options you can pick from when making this box:
- The first option is the default, with raiser rails included. In this option the “bed” of the raiser for the middle section has a different height for each of the dice trays. It was designed to house 3d20 in the top tray, 4d10 below that, then 4d8, and some d6s and d4s in the bottom tray. The heights of the raiser were calculated to make the dice fit as snug as possible to eliminate rattle.
- If you have non-standard dice you might want to go for the second option - the “flat” version of the middle dice bed. You still get both of the raisers, but this time they're both completely flat so each of the top trays is the same. This means that it's more likely your dice will fit without problems, but they might rattle when the box is closed.
- Finally, if you don't want raisers at all, you can go for the simplest “no raisers” option
Printing instructions
All parts are printed with the same settings: 0.2mm layer height, auto tree supports, 3 wall loops
The step-by-step process goes like this:
- Print the top part (lid) normally
- Print the Bottom Dice Bed(s)
- The project includes 4 “sizes” for this part to account for the tolerance of your printer. I recommend printing all of them to see which one fits better in the next step
- If you're going for the “no raisers” box variant - skip this step
- Print the Bottom section
- ⚠️You will need to add a manual pause when the print reaches 18mm (layer 90 at 0.2mm layer height)
- Once the print is paused, you need to manually insert one of the four Bottom Dice Beds you printed in the previous step. You want it to have almost no resistance when going into the slots
- Resume the print once the dice bed is in place
- Print the Hooks for the bottom section
- Once again, there are 2 “sizes” for the hooks. I recommend printing 4 of each size, and try to see which one fits better. You want them to “snap” into the bottom section holes and be held fairly strongly just by friction. To be extra safe, you can secure them with a drop of super glue
- Print the Middle Dice Bed(s)
- You have 2 options here - the “default” and the “flat”. Pick “default” for a snug fit, or “flat” if you have non-standard dice
- Once again there are 4 sizes. If you want to save on print time and waste, you can print only one of them, the same size as you ended up using for the Bottom section. However, I would still recommend printing all 4 to be safe
- If you're going for the “no raisers” box variant - skip this step
- Print the Middle section
- ⚠️Similar to the Bottom section, add a manual pause at 18mm (layer 90 at 0.2mm layer height)
- Once again, when the printer paused you'll need to manually insert the dice bed
- Resume the print once the dice bed is in place
- (optional) Print the Top size helper
- This is an optional part that's useful for cutting out a piece of velvet for the dice tray to help make it fit perfectly
Extra materials
- 4mm diameter, 2mm height magnets - 8 pieces
- 6mm foam sheet - something soft to add cushioning for the dice. I used a Heat Foam sheet from a local hardware store
- Velvet fabric - for the lid dice tray. I used “A4 Self-Adhesive Velvet Fabric” from AliExpress
Boost Me Took me a bunch of iterations to get this model right, a boost would mean a lot to me!
