Professional-sized, customisable domino pieces, for your playing pleasure. Includes an internal void for optionally filling to add weight!
So, when creating things with a 3D printer, we often face the question of whether we could just go buy the same thing instead. And with dominoes, you can go get a cheap plastic set very easily. So, we need to step up our game!
These pieces are constructed from a few parts, designed to maximize print quality - bottom layers are mostly hidden when assembled. Front and back plates are printed inside-out down, and snap into the body. I filled the void in between with air-drying clay for a more satisfying heft, and recommend you do similar. Gluing some heavy nuts inside would be perfect!
The dots and line are printed and snapped in from the inside.
The back plate designs are built for swapping filament for different layers, and a blank plate is included, too, intended for your own custom designs. Please upload photos of your custom work and colour combinations, I'd love to see!
Happy gaming!
This is all intended for single-extruder printing, and there's nothing tricky in terms of overhangs and such - all angles are friendly!
The dot inserts are snap-fit, through the underside of the face pieces, which means any elephant footing will get in the way. However, you won't see that side when it's assembled, so just carve out the underside of the holes with a blade if you need to!
Last but not least, the coloured back panels! I've changed filaments during the print in order to get multiples colours. In my case, I just used cura to pause at certain heights, but you could even do it manually if that's your style. So, what are the heights?
1.2mm - start of first colour change
1.6mm - start of second colour change where applicable
2.0mm return to base colour for final border.
Printing at 0.2mm layer height will make those numbers work out neatly.
