thingiverse

This is a game piece organizer for round base settlers of Catan pieces. Features: Fits 5 settlements, 4 cities, 15 roads, and 14 road connectors with ease. The lid securely attaches using powerful magnets. The lid also serves as a base to dock the piece holder, with magnets holding it in place. The lid can be used as a building costs card for added versatility. Supports 5mm ball magnets for seamless connection. I printed the following items: 5 each of settlements 4 each of cities 15 each of roads 14 thin road connectors (for modern designs) 52 road connectors (for medieval, Chinese, and Roman styles) 1 piece holder with a 2mm road slot and an 11mm trough (for modern pieces) 1 piece holder with a 2mm road slot and a 16mm trough (for medieval pieces) 2 piece holders with a 3mm road slot and a 16mm trough (for Chinese and Roman pieces) 1 each of lids 8 magnet holders in total, two for each set You can choose to omit the thin road connectors for modern pieces if desired. In that case, you should use the piece holder with a 2mm road slot and a 16mm trough. I utilized 64 5mm N42 ball magnets (8 per lid + 8 per holder). The connection is strong enough to hold everything together without causing discomfort or pinching fingers. Ensure that the magnets move freely in their slot before attaching the magnet holder with glue.
