Hextraction - Dice Tower for Dicey Tile - Printed at 90% scale to fit on my TINA2, with 5x2mm magnets and 3D-printed 7.2mm dice. - 3d model

The Dicey Destroyer Tile is a fun tile but requires dice to play. So I figured it'd be cool to make a modification to the rule card so that it conveniently stores small dice AND converts into a dice tower!

Here's a video of it in action!

To keep the model reasonably low-profile, I opted to use 8mm dice. You might be able to use dice that's a little bit bigger, but they might get stuck inside, and larger die certainly won't fit in the storage slots.

You'll also need some 6mmx2mm magnets. The top card takes 6 magnets, but dice tower part has deeper holes to double up the magnets. So the bottom piece can take 12 magnets total if you want the extra M A G P O W E R.

Lastly, there's two file variations for the dice tower part. One has the dice tower chamber covered by the part itself. The other one has the tumble chamber open and exposed, so you can flip the rule card around and use it to enclose the chamber. This open version might provide easier printability, and/or let you unclog the chamber if you use larger dice with this tower.

I wanna credit the original maker of the Dicey Destroyer tile, so I didn't include the tile itself. You'll need to go to one of the tile designer's original postings:

UPDATE: I removed the need for M3 screws, and simply made a new hinge mechanism. I also centered the middle magnets since I needed to make some changes to the overall design (so if you already printed up a rules card, it won't line up with this new revision).
