Great Western Trail: New Zealand insert

This is an insert for GWT: New Zealand to assist with getting it tabled efficiently. Given the shallow box height, double-layer player boards, and two map boards, it was a challenge to fit everything inside. Small compromises were made including a few thin walls, however all card trays can accommodate sleeved cards (GameGenic Prime pictured) , and there is minimal lid lift. The box can be stored vertically without affecting the components within. These were printed with a 0.4 nozzle, 0.2mm layer height, and 15% infill.

Update 8/30: I made a split file of the card trays for those with smaller print beds. They are overall slightly (0.5mm) longer than the 4-slot trays, and you will need to print 4x to hold all the needed cards.

Update 9/1: after a suggestion to revisit the A/B tokens, I was able to fit both bags in the box without having to remove the tokens! A new file - objectives neutral buildings - has been added and is the only new thing needed to print for those who already printed all files. The B token bag fits in the empty space on the bottom layer, and the A token bag fits in the previous A/B token area. I have also moved the 1/2/3/4 player board markers to between the neutral building tile and score pad for easier access.

Update 11/9: I've gotten a few requests to split the solo and market/scorepad trays for smaller print beds. These files have been moved to a new folder and utilize a puzzle-piece connector. I've also included a second type of tray for money (type B) which is more open and should allow you to simply dump the pieces in rather than sort them for storage.

Update 7/14/24: fixed GWT NZ market short.stl model which had a floating tab (thanks @IanCornwall_2198922 !)

Thank you to js500 for use of his original player tray files as well as the exchange marker tray from which I pulled the token's dimensions.

Card trays

The deck-building, bonus, and objective card trays have a slot at the top to hold the associated card label for easy viewing across the table and to save a little bit of space. You will need to print two of the card trays to hold the deck-building and bonus cards.

The market sheep deck is split between two trays next to the building aid/scorepad. This tray can be used as-is and will also keep the building aid handy for neutral building information. Player count board markers are located under the building aid.

Player Trays w/ key slot

Each player tray holds all associated building tiles, tokens, cards (including sleeved), hat, and meeple. The orange square token is used as a “key”, simply slide it upward from its resting location at the front of the tray to assist with card removal.

The scorepad is a bit of a tight fit but should drop in without too much fuss if kept parallel to the bottom of the tray.

Happy printing!
