Istanbul BigBox Organizer

Since I was not happy with the big box organizers I could find, I designed one myself.

Description

I had the following requirements for an insert for the Istanbul Big Box:

  • I wanted individual trays for the elements that are placed on the game board (e.g., for the market, the mosques, and the cards)

  • The components should be organized thematically, with a separation between the base game and the individual expansions

So I first designed the individual trays – including the trays that are placed on the table (coffee, rubies, coins). Then I created the larger trays – the "holders" that keep the smaller trays in place within the box.

The card trays are only suitable for unsleeved cards.

For places there are now two versions regarding the penultimate space:

  1. places.stl: The penultimate space is only wide enough for one tile. I store there the post office from the base game, because I have also the promo Pegasus Depot which I store in the wide compartment for alle base game place tiles.

  2. places_alternate.stl: The penultimate space is wide enough for two tiles, so you can store the two promo places "Pegasus Depot" and "Kebap shop" 

As a replacement for the Caravanserai tile, I printed the following camel meeple.

I found the starting player tile too boring, so I printed the following model as a starting player marker (scaled down to be approximately 30 mm wide):

All elements can be printed with standard settings, except for places.stl. This should be printed with brim.
 

Attention! You should check if this fits for your version of the game box. Mine ist from germany. If you have the USA version you probably want to print this remix:

All in all, I’m very happy with this organizer.

Please be aware that the organizer is designed for horizontal storage only.
