A 3D model of a board game box insert with trays for cards, tokens and pieces, to your game's sizes

A box with six compartments and a lid for small parts

The box and the lid

Seen from above

Size: the box is 120 × 80 × 40 mm and the lid 125 × 85 × 10 mm. Both are printed side by side. Files:

• model.stl and model.3mf;
• model.obj, model.glb and outline.dxf;
• model.js, with the outside size, the number of compartments and the wall thickness as named numbers;
• a README.

The README says the lid has a 0.3 mm gap so it slides on easily, and both parts print without supports.

Client: someone sorting screws, nuts and washers in a workshop drawer. Task: a box of 120 × 80 × 40 mm with 2 × 3 compartments with rounded inside corners, so small parts are easy to pick out, and a lid that sits on it.

The client and all details are made up.

About this service

A 3D model of an insert for a board game box, so cards, tokens, dice and pieces stay sorted and setting up is quick. You give the game box's inside size, the height left under the board and the rulebook, and what goes in each compartment: card stacks with or without sleeves, token piles, dice, pieces. Trays lift out and can sit on the table during play; from Standard they have rounded inside corners for picking up tokens and a lid that sits on or slides in. You get a ZIP archive: STL and 3MF to print, OBJ, GLB, a DXF outline, the code with the sizes at the top, a README with printing advice and pictures from four sides. A game with many components may need more trays than one package holds. No game art, names or icons on the trays, and no copies of inserts sold by others. We do not print or ship inserts.

What is included

• What you getA ZIP archive with model.stl and model.3mf for 3D printing, model.obj for 3D editors, model.glb for viewing on the web and in augmented reality, outline.dxf with the outline seen from above for CAD and laser cutting, model.js with the main sizes as named numbers at the top, a README with printing advice and 4 PNG pictures of the 3D model from four sides, also shown on the order page. Trays and lids lie side by side, ready to print separately.
• Fits the game boxTo its inside size, with room left for the board and the rules
• Cells for componentsCard stacks, tokens, dice and pieces, sized from your measurements
• Trays for the tableLift-out trays; rounded corners for tokens from Standard

How it works

1. 1
   MeasurementsYou measure the box inside and the components: card stacks, tokens, dice
2. 2
   3D modelWe build the 3D model and check that it is a closed solid of the sizes you asked for
3. 3
   CheckYou check the sizes in the pictures and the README and print one tray first
4. 4
   ChangesYou send what to change, with measurements, within your package

What we need from you

The game box's inside length, width and height in mm, and how much height the board, the rulebook and any other boards take, so the lid still closes. What goes in: each card stack with its card size and height, sleeved or not; token piles with the token size; dice; pieces with their largest size. The layout you want, or a sketch. Whether trays should have lids or stack, and which go on the table during play. Measure with a ruler or a caliper: we never guess a component's size. The material, if you know it.

We will ask you:

• The game box's inside size, in mm
• The components
• How should it be laid out?
• Lids and stacking
