Description
We often play backgammon on a really nice set. We like to give each other a hard time about who won/lost the last game. This model was printed in a gold colored PLA filament (FiberForce), and a backgammon checker is placed on top like a winner's podium at a sports competition.
It's a simple piece with a recess for the backgammon checker to stand up on edge in a groove. It is designed for a checker that is 43.5 mm diameter (~1.75") and 12.5 mm thick (~½"). The base is just slightly smaller diameter than the playing pieces, so it can be stored with the pieces.
The winner text is raised from the beveled base. This is a really quick print, and turned out well on the first try.
