The Castles of Burgundy Dice Tower (Die Burgen von Burgund)

• Dice tower for The Castles of Burgundy (or any other 14 mm³ dice)

• use one of the pockets of the original box insert to fit a dice tower

• compact foldable design which allows minimal table space ( video of the folding action )

• magnets which hold the tower in both the open and closed position (not necessary)

• folding mechanism inspired by @Ulmeck

##

• optimizing use of space by two part design

• minimizing used filament by bridging with minimal support

weight height width depth
68 g 43 mm 112 mm 52 mm

##

• both printed with 0.4 Nozzle in 0.2 Layer height

• 15% Infill

• PLA (Das Filament “Blue Pearl”)

• one of the pivot holes is closed by a sacrificial bridging layer (will be removed later) this side should be facing up

• Support Everywhere, they'll be generated on the openings to allow clean bridging

• Support only on build plate only (to hold the rotation pins)

• remove supports and sacrificial layer in the pivot hole

• 6 cylindrical Magnets of 5 mm diameter and 1 mm height ( amazon ) they aren't visible, so if you don't want to use them nobody will notice, but they provide a really satisfying feeling while opening and closing

• be very careful to place the magnets in the right directions

• remove the one bridge layer in the top pivoting hole (deburring tool works best)

• glue in two magnets on each side !!!both in the same direction!!! I'd suggest holding them in a stack and sliding one into each pocket with a drop of superglue

##

• glue in one magnet on each side !!!check polarity on the Tower!!! I'd recommend placing one on each side of the Tower, then putting glue in the Tray holes and then sliding it over the tower, so you are sure to have them in the right direction
