What changed: An improvement on the previous design by modifying the upper section of the insert to accommodate the base set, which then allows you to store one additional expansion in your box. Depending on whether you want all of your dice in individual boxes, the original version may be preferred, but if you're looking to make the absolute most of the space you have, this is it!

Designer's Description

An improved fully 3D-printable insert for the Railroad Ink board game box, able to contain an entire game with all of its pieces, and room for 7 sets of dice (1 base set, and 6 expansions).

This insert differs from other versions in that each expansion is contained in its own small box within the insert. The files include lid designs for each possible edition and expansion, which allows you to print boxes for specific expansions you own, which makes it easier to mix and match what expansions you take with you and makes for a more fun and aesthetically pleasing design. Each lid also has a small point on its bottom face which allows you to more easily pull it out of the box without much hassle (I learned this lesson the hard way!)

The top section of the board has been improved from version 1 by creating space for the base dice set, allowing you to store an additional expansion!

This insert also includes a custom lid designed for the custom City Expansion designed by my friend and I, which you can also view at this link .

Recommended Print Settings:

I would recommend using a 0.4mm nozzle for printing especially for the dice boxes as they are incredibly thin at just 0.8mm thick at certain areas, and so a 0.6mm nozzle may struggle to achieve sufficient strength with just single wall thicknesses.

None of the parts have any particularly challenging features so you should be able to print this with your standard settings, in my case I used PLA for everything and printed at 0.2mm layer heights, 20% infill, 60mm/s inner wall, 30mm/s outer.

You may need to test fit the lids onto the boxes a couple times to wear away the rail just a tad to attain a smooth slide when you open and close the boxes, shouldn't take more than a minute per box.
