Catan Game Board tiles - Desert

thingiverse

Desert resource tiles for my 3D Settlers of Catan game board. Concept is based on the Catan tiles done by RecklessRobbie. [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:650082](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:650082) I made these a bit thicker for increased stiffness and durability (I'm using PLA for material, settings are below). I also made the tile-to-tile interface a bit tighter tolerance to ensure the tiles stay together nicely. And finally, I added recessed areas for the player pieces around the outside. The recessed pockets are sized for roads with a footprint of 6.5mm x 27mm and town/city pieces that are ~15.3mm diameter. I am making my own roads, and plan on using the town/city parts designed by Thuren. [https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:687162](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:687162) The mammoth skull tile is kinda fragile, so I prefer the T-rex design myself. Some tiles use assets from uploads by other makers here on Thingverse. I've created a remix link back to any projects that have models used in these tiles. My print settings were 0.15mm layer, 2 perimeter, 3 layers top/bottom, 15-20% grid infill, 2mm brim (helps keep the tile-to-tile interface tabs from warping). For the rest of my designs, see the following links.
