Description
A dice tray for Wingspan (or any board game with d6/d8 dice) shaped
like a woven bird's nest on the outside, with a clean rectangular cavity
on the inside. Drop your dice in, they bounce off the smooth interior
walls and stay contained for reading from above.
Outer dimensions: ~110 × 60 × 34 mm (plus the twigs sticking out)
- Inner cavity: 100 × 50 × 30 mm — fits a fistful of dice comfortably
- 600 short cylindrical "twigs" of randomised length, yaw, and tilt
cover all four outer walls — every twig has solid attachment to the
structural shell (no floating geometry)
- Prints standing up with the cavity opening at the top — every
twig is a short horizontal cylinder against a vertical wall, so no
supports needed
- Parametric: n_twigs, twig_len_minmax, twig_d, cavity
dimensions all live at the top of dice_nest.scad
Photos: printed in black PLA, 0.2 mm layer, 3 walls, 15 % infill,
no supports — ~3 h, ~80 g.
