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

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