Here is a relatively modular Carcassonne insert system that should work for most cases. I can make main tile inserts for other versions of Carcassonne as well if there is any interest - DM me. This one currently has main tile holders for Star Wars, Winter (2012), and Hunters & Gatherers, Mists over Carcassonne. I made a separate one for Winter Carcassonne (2024) which is HERE.
I printed all of mine in PLA at .2mm layer height, with 2 wall loops and 15% gyroid infill, with supports for the nesting components. I added a .5mm chamfer at the base to help avoid elephant's foot.
For each version of Carcassonne, you will need:
All configurations allow you to stack your rules manual and scoreboard on top, and depending on your bag thickness, there should be no lid lift.
I designed all these parts to be able to fit on my Bambu X1 bed. The Tile holders will fit easily if you rotate them at a 45 degree angle to the bed, and will print 1 at a time. You can probably print a bunch of the Meeple boxes at the same time as they are relatively small. I have successfully print 8 simultaneously on the Bambu X1 bed with no issues.
Enjoy and let me know if there are any versions or variations that you think would be helpful. These should fit in most of the standard sized Carcassonne boxes.
Update 3/29/2025: Added components for Mists over Carcassonne, which includes a spot for the Spell Circles expansion. There is no “Tiles 2”, instead print the bag holder/spacer, which will hold a bag for your tiles. Also print the nesting bottom. You can do 6 of the 2-stack boxes for the meeple, and then 3 of the 3-stack boxes for the little accessories.
Update 5/4/2025: Acquired a copy of Amazonas and confirmed its fit.
