It appears that the provided text is a detailed guide on printing custom tiles for the board game "Under the Big Top" using a 3D printer, specifically a Prusa i3 MK2. The author has shared their experience and techniques for printing high-quality tiles with minimal post-processing requirements. Here's a summary of the key points: **Printing Settings** * Nozzle size: 4mm * Layer height: 0.15mm * Base layer thickness: 0.20mm * Infill density: 15% * Infill pattern: Concentric (top and bottom) * Brim attachment: 3mm **Painting Requirements** * Farm and city houses: brown or red * Volcano and portal tiles: grey * Garden squares: filled in with toothpick and multiple paints for flowers * Festival tents: tops painted * Vineyards and hills: green **Tips and Issues** * Rotating affected tiles on the plate can resolve issues with layer count errors. * The "poor man's inlay trick" involves creating a base layer with a cutout that allows filament to flow into, creating an inlay effect without additional processing. * Experimenting with different color materials can enhance the 3D look of areas like city floors and fields. **Color Layers** The author has defined specific color layers for each tile type, including: * Fields: light green (base), blue (underlay), copper (dark field color), light green (fields) * City floor: dark brown (underlay), copper (city floor), pearl white (shield base), blue (shield top), khaki (walls), blue (wall tops and towers) * Cloisters: same as city floor, then khaki (walls) and red (cloister itself) * Cathedrals and Abbey: same as city floor, then khaki (walls) and red (roof) Overall, this guide provides a wealth of information for 3D printing enthusiasts looking to create high-quality custom tiles for their board games.
