Made my first model (www.printables.com)
submitted 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) by JaymesRS@piefed.world to c/3dprinting@lemmy.world

I don’t often toot my own horn on the internet, but I made this for myself and it turned out pretty well. I know I’m pretty late to the game but I put a Prussa MK4 together at my school last year for another teacher (who didn’t have the time to do it) and have been slowly learning the ropes. It’s a remix, but this was the first thing that I made the final model from (nearly) scratch and didn’t just print someone else’s stl.

We’re trying to bring more analog entertainment with us when we go out so my spouse and I (and by extension our kids) don’t just jump to devices for down time.

What game do you play that needs 10 dice?

[-] JaymesRS@piefed.world 8 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

It’s not that we play a specific game that needs 10 dice, but I find that I can accommodate a whole lot of games if I have 10 dice. I originally thought of doing six because that would cover up through Farkle and then Yahtzee could come along for the ride, but then I realized that if I threw all the dice in the package in there, I could expand the optional games; or even support running multiple games separately.

If I had 2 extra we could even play Bunco. So it was more that it fit and opened up a bunch of options.

Mine only accommodates 1 game.

Santorini. It was just an ambition project that got a little out of hand. I also made a self-contained version that has its own fold-out case.

Mind listing some of your favorite games? I got a whole sack of various dice and don't know any games besides DND to use them with.

Dice-play.com is a really good resource. We play a lot of farkle (older scoring, not the commercial version), and Yahtzee, but lately we’ve been playing Ship, Captain, Crew; Knockout; and Centennial with the kids.

Nice! Talk about a great example of "OP delivers". My thanks to the person you're replying to for asking the question that led to this useful answer

1v1 real-time Yahtzee?

It occurs to me as well that the “completeness” of this amused me too.

  • 1 tin
  • 1 ~$5 package of dice
  • 1 print
  • 1 pencil from IKEA, your local golf course or wherever
  • 1 pocketmod printout of games sized to fit the tin (a work in progress)

No spare parts, it’s all complete.
