Working on a playing card version of Toppa (possibly).
I like the idea of offering a low cost alternative but also wouldn't want to cannibalize the small amount of game sales I do have for the board versions. #cardgame #gamedesign #tabletop

Not entirely glue-less unfortunately. The top and bottom panels still need to be glued in to stay but I will fix that eventually.

Progress on the new matching card game. Still thinking on names. I like "ICON: A Game of Pairs" but I think there's a game named Icon already? I could go with just "A Game of Pairs" maybe? Names are hard, lol.

Digging the UNO color vibe though! #gamedesign #tabletop

Just dropped off 20 of my Vermont mountains magnet to a local shop! Hopefully the first of many. : )

I can get 28 Toppa boards from 1 full spool of PLA on my Bambu A1 Mini. About 35g each. I could probably make the walls a bit thinner but I like that it feels solid & 14 sets of boards from a single spool is good enough for me! #3dprinting #tabletopgames #gamedesign

Toppa takes about 7-8 hours to print a full game.
Block Market takes about 9-10 hours for a game (it's got the most pieces & 7 colors!
Gravity Well is the fastest, it only takes about 5 hours.

Hopefully if I sell some games I'll buy a 2nd Bambu Mini & double my production! lol.

This is what about 2 weeks of off & on printing looks like when you only have a single Bambu A1 Mini (plus a few prototypes game boards). #tabletop #games #3dprinting

I have a few of each game available on my Etsy shop w/free shipping in the U.S.

I reworked my Block Market game so instead of printing a set of 24 paper "Investment Cards" for each game I'm 3d printing my own "Tiles" that will do the same thing as the cards.

Adds a LOT to the print time but fits the theme so much better & I kind of love it all looks. #tabletop #gamedesign

Reworked my packaging yet again to a less costly plastic box. I really like being able to actually see game pieces/boards inside.

I can now sell games for $20 at shows & $29 with free shipping online. A price point I honestly never thought I'd hit!

Love how your mind works on things behind your back. Set aside vague concept months ago as I worked on finishing other games.

Back to it the other day & pretty much knew what it needed to be.

Also, if only 1 board in game do you prefer grey or purple?

Added Block Market to my shop. This is my 3rd game, along with Toppa & Gravity Well that were started over the covid pandemic. Great to see all 3 completed & available. Time to start the next round of Toppa Games, I may have a couple concepts brewing. #boardgames #tabletop #gamedesign

Spent today adding a couple new STL 3D files to my Etsy shop. These are only a few bucks each but I think I’m going to try listing some small stuff I’ve designed that I don’t mind selling for a dollar or so. See if that brings in more eyes. #3dprinting #etsy

The board for one of the games I’m working on. Pretty much only the rules booklets design left to do. Looking forward to putting it out there! #tabletop #boardgames #3dprinting

Somehow I always end up back at the beginning. When I first created Toppa I made it myself on my laser cutter. Now after a lot of experimenting with different packaging solutions for the 3d printed version I'm back to making my own boxes on my laser cutter. #tabletop #boardgames

I’m really pleased with this 2 piece stackable, snap-together checker design I made. Specifically for Toppa but I’m sure I’ll be using them in future games as well. #3dprinting #boardgames

Except for the color chips this is all “wood Filament”. I doubt there’s a ton of wood in it but it does give a more rough, matte finish to things.

This is the fully 3d printed version of my Toppa game. I like it! Still not as much as the real wood version but it’s about 40% of the cost to make. Still takes about 7 hours to print a complete set of all the pieces (2 boards, 24 checkers, 18 chips).

I still like wood boards & checkers more but the cost of 3d printed Toppa is literally a third of wood. Brings the retail cost of a game down to $20 from $35 and that’s super hard to ignore.

I DO like the new icons on the color chips. Helps with color blindness access too.

Played with making little 1x1x1 cube table sign holders today.

There’s a lot of this kind of thing out there so probably can’t compete in pricing but maybe something for my own signs at shows eventually.

I also did a version where the blocks are right next to each other. That helps a bit.

I designed these maze cubes before finding a similar design on thingiverse.

The “holes” are more obvious than I was hoping they’d be and it’ll take a lot more blocks to make a really good maze.

Oh well, still good practice and it looks super cool!

A few original 3d designs. Almost time to buy a couple new filament colors now that I k ow the machine works.

These are 2” diameter and 1/8” thick. Using a .4 nozzle. Definitely see some printing lines but overall I’m pretty happy with the quality. #3dprinting
