Oversized Die with Stand

thingiverse

I modified SVG files from thing 110342, created by TexasLaser, to transform them into printable boxes instead of wood-cut designs. To achieve a snug fit without excessive material, I reduced slot openings by roughly half, enabling printing each side separately. The tolerances were quite tight, necessitating some sanding and filing to ensure tabs slid smoothly into slots; however, the assembly resulted in a solid fit. I utilized Hatchbox Wood filament for printing. After assembling the dice cube, I sanded it down with 180 and 220 grit sandpaper to achieve a smooth finish. To enhance its appearance, I painted the interior of each piece black and applied a dark stain to the exterior by hand rubbing. Lastly, I treated the entire cube with dark brown antiquing wax. A separate file is included for the stand, designed to display the die on one corner.
