That’s awesome, I bet tons of people would buy those. Would’ve loved to have one when I played a lot.

Thank you! I printed a couple for my friends to play with. The downsides were they take forever to print and are prone to warping, but I learned some adhesion skills that helped, like using glue stick on the bed.

I’m sure over time you’ll protect it too! Keep it up. Not sure if you’re into D&D but a dice holder tray for that would also be pretty slick

Heck yea, thank you for the idea. I do play D&D and I’ve been trying to come up with a stackable dice holder that fits in a small go bag. I’m a minimalist at heart so if it’s tiny and functional it’s perfect.

I like that it's not a fully enclosed design, those always feel like they're not making the best use of the printing process.

A fillet on each of the vertical edges should help with any warping on the main body. Adding a brim if you haven't already will also help.
