I am thrilled to present my latest creation, a medieval-inspired dice tower that combines the charm of history with the precision of modern technology. As an avid gamer and designer, I have meticulously crafted this tower to not only serve as a functional piece in your gaming arsenal but also as a stunning conversation starter at any tabletop gathering.

My design consists of three main sections that are optimized for 3D printing, ensuring ease of assembly and durability. The intermediate floors are designed to be glued together smoothly, creating a solid structure that stands the test of time. To enhance the gaming experience, I have included two models of bowls with different heights, perfect for catching your dice. These bowls are ingeniously crafted to accommodate magnets, allowing them to snap to eatch other and the tower securely. This feature lets you customize your setup according to the number of bowls needed for your game, offering both convenience and adaptability.

I have carefully rounded the inner edges of the bowls to ensure that retrieving your dice and meeples is as easy as rolling them. This design choice keeps the gameplay flowing without interruption. Moreover, every piece—the tower itself and each bowl—is designed to be fully stackable. When it's time to pack up or take your gaming on the road, simply secure the set with an elastic band for hassle-free transportation to your next game night or convention.

Key features of my medieval dice tower include:

  • A captivating medieval design complete with detailed turret roofs
  • Three-piece tower construction for straightforward 3D printing and assembly
  • Customizable magnetic bowls that cater to various game requirements
  • Thoughtfully crafted bowl edges for smooth dice retrieval
  • Compact stackability for easy storage and transport
  • Versatility to enhance a wide array of tabletop games and role-playing adventures

I invite you to bring a piece of the past into your present-day gaming with this enchanting medieval dice tower. It's more than just a tool; it's a statement that reflects your passion for the game and an appreciation for timeless design. Let the dice roll, and may luck be with you in every throw!

If you want to add magnets: beware of the polarisation. The bowls do habe small dots in the top layer on three sides. All these sides should have the same polarisation - and the other on the other three sides. Following this stacking them together is easy - everytime a side with a dot must be connected to a side without. The optimal point to insert the “stop command” is about a height of 16.5 mm. Use 10x2mm magnets and a drop of glue to stop them from moving…
