Stereographic Projection Mill Game

The darkness arrives, a welcome harbinger for the game. Only in the shadows can you find true fun.\nThis is an intriguing perspective on the timeless game Mill, also known as Nine Man Morris. Take note: when you shine light upon the projection body, dark silhouettes emerge to form the game board\nFor more information, check out the instructions below! \nCatch a quick video tutorial at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x65ZbuQRLOA\n\n \n \n Get Started!\n \nBefore you begin, remember to print the essential projection-printable.stl file. It takes about two hours to complete with a layer height of 0.3 mm. The design is based on http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:295281. A clever customizer created the image array using http://customizer.makerbot.com/image_array. \nTo enhance your gaming experience, consider printing the optional aufsatz.stl attachment. This allows you to place a LED light through a hole (not the body itself, just the wires) and secure a battery holder on top. If there's interest, I can draft a circuit plan for you. Please remember to add a resistor in series with your battery and LED, using a value between 10 Ohms and 20 Ohms to prolong the LED's lifespan. For optimal results, remove the round tip of the LED to direct its beam more effectively. Alternatively, you can use a single light source from your phone or any handheld torch - though multi-LED flashlights will create multiple shadows.
