Dahan — Spirit Island Tribal Hut Token (2-Colour, AMS Split-to-Parts)

Dahan — Spirit Island tribal hut token

Replacement tokens for the dahan (Pacific-Islander villagers) in

[Spirit Island](https://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/162886/spirit-island).

Stylised as miniature tribal huts so each one reads at a glance as a

village, not a wooden cube.

Generated in Meshy from a DALL·E reference (chibi Pacific-Islander

tribal hut with conical thatched roof + woven body + low-relief door),

then sliced into a roof half and a body half for 2-colour printing on

a Bambu AMS.

Bundle

• *dahan_combined.stl** (~27 MB) — 2 named solids dahan_roof+

•   dahan_body) in one ASCII STL. Bambu workflow: **Import →

•   right-click → Split to Parts** → assign one filament per part.

•   Coordinates locked, no manual alignment.

• - *dahan_body.stl** (~1.9 MB) — woven body half only, binary STL.

•   Use this for a single-colour print, or for AMS users who want to

•   assign filaments per-file instead of via Split-to-Parts.

• - *dahan_roof.stl** (~2.9 MB) — conical thatched roof half only,

•   binary STL. Mates with the body at z = 8.25 mm.

Dimensions

• Overall: Ø22 mm × 20 mm tall

• - Roof / body seam at z ≈ 8.25 mm (vertex-histogram peak — the eave

•   where roof meets wall)

• - Each hut: ~6 g PLA at standard settings

Print

• Orientation: flat on bed — the token sits upright with the

•   body's flat bottom on the build plate.

• - Supports: none.

• - Layers: 0.2 mm.

• - Walls: 3.

• - Infill: 15 %.

• - Filament: ~6 g per hut.

• - Print time: ~25 min per hut.

The bundle ships 6 huts on the print bed (one for every dahan slot on

the standard Spirit Island board / per-spirit setup). Tile them in

Bambu Studio if you want fewer / more.

2-colour workflow (Bambu Studio + AMS)

1. Import dahan_combined.stl.

2. 2. Right-click the model → Split to Parts. You will see two parts

3.    named dahan_roofand dahan_body.

4. 3. Assign filament 1 (e.g. thatch tan) to dahan_roof,

5.    filament 2 (e.g. wall brown) to dahan_body.

6. 4. Slice + print.

The seam at z = 8.25 mm is the natural eave line — the colour change

lands exactly where the wall meets the overhang of the roof, so it

reads as architecture, not as a slicer artefact.

Why ship the per-half STLs too?

• No AMS? Print dahan_body.stland dahan_roof.stlseparately,

•   then glue them at the seam. Or just print the body for a

•   silhouette-only token.

• - Single-colour MMU users: drop dahan_combined.stlin as a

•   multi-material model directly without Split-to-Parts.

• - Backup: the combined ASCII is ~5× larger than the binary halves

•   — if your slicer balks at the size, the halves are the same mesh in

•   a leaner format.

Compatibility

• Designed for Spirit Island (any edition).

• - The token's footprint fits the dahan slots on the board with margin

•   to spare; multiple huts cluster cleanly inside a single land.

• - Pairs nicely with my other Spirit Island prints (beast / fist / paw

•   / mountain / wilds tokens + energy_counter + colonizer) — all in the

•   same chibi visual language.

Generation pipeline (for the curious)

1. DALL·E for a flat reference image of a chibi tribal hut.

2. 2. Meshy image-to-3D, sculpting the figurine to ~100 MB raw STL.

3. 3. trimesh to repair the mesh (manifold), find the eave seam via

4.    vertex z-histogram, and intersections.slice_mesh_plane(cap=True)

5.    to split into roof + body halves.

6. 4. Quadric decimation on each half to ship-friendly poly counts.

7. 5. sed to rename each half's solidheader solid dahan_roof/

8.    solid dahan_body) and concatenate the two ASCII files into the

9.    final combined STL. Coordinates preserved exactly.

The raw 100 MB Meshy STL is gitignored; the decimated halves +

combined ASCII are what ships here.
