Dragondicebox_endscales1 - Dragon scales face one direction with light source highlights on top. Dragondicebox_endscales2 - Dragon scales face the other direction with light source highlights on top.
Dragondicebox_sidescales1 - Dragon scales face one direction with light source highlights on top. **Dragondicebox_sidescales2 **- Dragon scales face the other direction with light source highlights on top.
Assembly Instructions: Sidescales and endscales can be postioned to have the white highlighted portion facing the top lid of the box. They can be postioned in a continous circle around the outside edge or the the sides can both face the same direction. Once you have determined the orientation of the end and side scales, insert them into the recessed rectangular spaces on the dicebox, they should snap in place however, depending on filament and print quaility you may have to glue them in place.
Slide the end piece onto the end of the dice box with the RetroMaker logo hidden on the back side. Slide it up from the bottom as it is designed that way.
Before you slide it all the way up, insert the lid (with the Dragon facing up) from that end into the small slots on the side and slide it all the way in place.
Continue by sliding the end piece all the way until it is flush with the top of the box edges.
The lid can be slightly slid into the small groove on the end to keep the end in place.
To open the box:
- Slide the lid slightly to the top of the picture.
- Slide the end piece down enough to allow for the lid to slide out.
- Slide the lid all the way out or as far as you need to get your dice.
- Reverse procedure to close.
