Hourglass Portable Dice Tower and Storage!
Download here!
Hi Cinders!
THIS ONE WAS FUN! I had HIGH EXPECTATIONS for my next dice tower. I wanted it to be Portable with dice storage, have amazing sound when the dice fall through it, have a longer "fall" time for more fun and sound, wanted it to hang so you could easily take it anywhere, be interactive where it didn't just sit there was playable, be functional at the smallest size possible, and cost the least amount if time and filament I possibly could - ALL while maintaining strength and durability!
This one took 2 months to perfect and we ended with a final version that has a 3 nub lock that works with a great range of filament types and tolerances! It also looks great in all filaments with a single reel! This design has been tested and is functional down to 60% (as shown in the pictures). 60% fits the little 10mm die that i have attached in a link HERE.
This dice tower works as it sounds: you put the dice in at the top, it falls down to the bottom, you flip it over like an hourglass, and the dice fall again. You can either dump them into your hand or let them fall onto the table and pick up the hourglass to show your di. the Di do sometimes catch inside but a little shake gets them free!
I have to give credit to my amazing husband for brainstorming with me on this one. We went over every aspect and expectation we could and nitpicked through several renditions to find the perfect design!
Also huge thank you to the CINDERWING3D TEST TEAM for thoroughly testing not just this one but ALL of the Cinderwing3D designs this year! You all are amazing and I really appreciate your feedback!
Thank you Cinders for all your support this month and this year!! You keep me going!

All my designs are print-in-place (unless otherwise specified) and require no supports. All you need is a clean bed and you're off!
Designs are tested between 60%-100% for strength and articulation! I will not release a design that is too fragile at these sizes. All designs go through our Cinder Test Team!
Print Settings: .2 Layer height, 15% infill, gyroid infill, no brim, and no supports. (If there are smaller parts of your print that have a hard time staying stuck to the plate, please try a brim around those parts) Any errors regarding floating regions can be safely ignored.
