Compass rose token / marker

thingiverse

I made this compass rose for a board game project to show the orientation of north on a map, and by extension the cardinal and ordinal directions. The map was made up of hexagon tiles so I glued the compass rose onto a blank one and painted it. You could use this with D&D battle maps, wargames, board games or anything else where knowing compass directions could be useful. This compass rose is 53mm in diameter and 3mm thick at 100% scale. It will print without supports and I added a version with a small raft on one of the compass points to help with removing it from the build plate undamaged. The MDF hexagon tile I used is ~69mm in diameter and 3mm thick, so I added two other versions of the compass rose attached to 70mm x 3mm hexagon and circle bases. I recommend using a resin printer to capture all of the sharp details if you have one, otherwise you may want to increase the scale a bit for FDM printing. (Photo example was printed in resin at 0.05mm layer height with an Elegoo Mars 2 Pro)
