New guy here with something to share

By Talisrob, in Talisman

Hi everyone, just wanted to share a project I've been working on the last couple weeks. I recently got a 3D printer and decided to make some custom deck trays and 3D terrain pieces for Talisman. There's four different versions of the adventure card deck trays. A standard size one for the main board adventure cards and spell cards. A Dungeon and Highlands tray with a side pocket attached to hold the Relic and Treasure cards. A Woodlands tray with two pockets attached, one for Destiny cards and one for Path cards. And also a shorter version of the standard tray which is good for the City adventure deck. To go along with the City expansion there are designated trays for all of the city shop purchase cards, stables, pets, etc and also Warlock Quest/Reward and Talisman cards.

The terrain pieces are simple 3D models for the various points of interest on the main board. They're all sized to fit their board space with room to spare but they could be easily scaled up before printing.

All the files are available to download for free on thingiverse. Download them and print them at home or take them to a 3rd party printing site if you don't have a 3D printer.

These look great!

How do those trays work with sleeved cards?

Purty neet. :)

Thought I responded to this earlier today, must have forgot to hit the post button :mellow:

I don't sleeve my cards so I'm not sure if they will fit. The internal dimensions of the trays are 44mm x 66mm and it leaves a small amount of space between the cards and the tray but probably not enough. If you could give me the measurements of your sleeved cards I can upload a scaled up version of the trays that would work.

Wowers

I see, thanks.

I was wondering, could you perhaps make Purchase deck trays looking like Adventure card trays? So to change that Talisman icon to circled icons.

Something like this?

Yeah, I think in this cards won't move and I will be able to store them in that trays in a box.

Do You plan to make trays for other card types as well?

I actually store mine in box along side all the standard deck trays. Just have to place them facing up instead of flat.

I've gotten a little sidetracked with other 3D printing projects but I do plan on making specific trays for the Harbinger expansion and the Dragon expansion. I also have a character card tray that doubles as a dice tray that's pretty much ready to go. When I get them all finalized and uploaded to thingiverse I'll post the links.

How about some renders? :)

Unless it is the trays with crenellations in your other post?

Its similar to the ones in this picture but those were very quickly thrown together prototypes. Just wanted to see how they actually performed as dice trays.

Here's the render. I've yet to print one out because my printer needs a little tune up and USPS is two days late on delivering my parts <_<

The character cards fit perfectly inside the tray so you end up rolling the dice on top of the character card instead of the plastic tray. It actually helps a lot to deaden the sound of dice bouncing around on plastic.

Now, if you changed the font to ITC Serif Gothic Black it'd be perfect ;)

Could you add towers on the corners that could hold the strength, craft and life tokens.

Has my inner geek gone a little too far?

These are outstanding. Just excellent!

I had no idea there was an official Talisman font! Let me see what I can do.

You're totally worthy! These are free!

There is a tip button if you feel generous though. :)

Shazam.

these are amazing, would love them all actually.

Are you considering selling them? or is there a place you recommend to print them?

Wasn't planning on selling these. That's why I put all the files on thingiverse to download for free. You can order them printed from the thingiverse page. The order is fulfilled through a place called 3D Hubs. I've never used them so I don't what the results are like but their prices seem good. You can also upload the files to any other online 3D printing service. Or if you're lucky your local library might have a 3D printer to use for free.

Looks great, and I missed the post where you'd updated the font! :)

Had a few requests for this so I put up a modified version of the Purchase/Warlock/Talisman card trays. Same size and design as the short version adventure card trays but with the icons from the purchase and warlock decks.
