Analog Tetris

This is my inaugural Model post, so be gentle! I've been hanging out with Tinkercad and came up with this desktop puzzle Tetris game.\r\nSo I designed a 10-slide bed for this game, and the footer that stops the Tetriminos at the bottom.\r\nThe Tetris slide bed I created was made to accommodate multiple beds, allowing you to create a higher slide by printing several beds and joining them together.\r\nThe footer is also removable, so you can let the Tetrominos fall down and play again.\r\nPrinted with support in the bed and footer only where they touch the build plate, just to be safe - I printed all at a slow rate.\r\nI designed each Tetrimino to fit perfectly into the slide, and they worked great on my first attempt! Each one is in its own file, so you can print them in any amount or color you want.\r\nThe game came out quite large, but you can scale it down and test it. I printed my first model at 100% - that's the one in the picture - and had to make some modifications to get the bed and footer to fit correctly. After that, I printed a second model at 50% - also pictured here - and it worked out perfectly. The bed and footer joined together smoothly at 50%, and the Tetrominos were small but still worked well too. I think the sweet spot is 60% or higher.
