Description

This is a collection of two related prints for the board game Shackleton Base that I have brought into a project for Bambu Studio for convenience. All credit goes to the original creators of these models.

 

The first is a set of bases to replace the punchboard bases, produced by Clownfeet on Thingiverse. A single plate covers all four players' worth of tokens in four different colors.

 

The second is a set of inserts that go into the corporation tuck boxes to help organize them cleanly, produced by Richard D on Printables. This print is on two plates to cover the need to print five of the standard inserts. Note that these inserts expect that your cards are sleeved, or they will settle into the box and not sit on top.

 

Additionally, I saw an opportunity and have created and added an insert for the Space Robotics corporation tuck box.

Updated 2025-12-18

I've received a lot of requests to improve the tuck boxes for Selenium Research and Evergreen Farms since both involve a lot of tokens. As my skills in modeling have finally improved enough to be comfortable to take a crack at these requests, I have finally done so. I did not stop there, though, and I finished building out the rest of the box; now all of the pieces have organizers. Everything fits cleanly with limited shifting of the main game board (I can quickly whip up a spacer for that too if needed, but as long as the player trays are oriented so the 50/150 tokens are towards the outside then nothing will fall out even with the board able to slide slightly) and there's no lid lift.

 

Notes:

  • The Evergreen Farms insert was very, very tricky to design because of the angles and sizes. I have fairly large fingers, and I am able to get all of the pieces out. Please let me know if you have any issues with any parts of this specific model. I went through probably 8 revisions before I ended up with this one where everything fit reasonably well.
  • The insert with the Shuttles and Solar tokens is meant to be pulled out by the middle pole with a grip wedge at top.
  • The Leaders and Tokens insert is in two pieces, the top tray nests inside to protect the lower section, and comes out to reveal the $3 and $1 tokens and the Titanium and Rare Earth tokens.
  • It is basically impossible to organize the included Astronauts tuck box as all 75 pieces barely fit in it as it is. Since there was available space alongside the token boxes, I built out a new Astronauts tray. This includes a lid that can be inserted to further protect the contents if designed, but it is not strictly necessary.
  • If you do use the lid for the Astronauts tray, do note that there is exactly one way I found for orienting the tokens that gets all 25 tokens of each color to fit in their respective slots. Pay attention to how they're laid out in this photo:

    The bottom layer fits as shown with the blue tokens. The top layer up fits as shown by the yellow tokens (only four tokens were added to the yellow section to show how they fit together. (You basically offset the arms of the top layer with the bottom layer.) The remaining three or four tokens fit alongside the top layer in the gap left. Positioned like this, the lid fits perfectly. If you do not use the lid, you have a little more room to just toss them in.

  • The lid for the Astronauts tray can be made lighter and nice looking by printing with both the top and bottom shell layers to 0 and the Sparse Infill Density to anything from 25% to 40%. (I used 40% in the lid printed for the photos.)
  • The spacer is optional, but helps prevent the corporation boards and solo tray from sliding around.

Thanks to everyone for their patience, and feedback is always appreciated.
