Hex Bowls for Settlers of Catan

thingiverse

Settlers of Catan + Cities and Knights + Expansion Pack + House Rules = Complicated. To help mitigate the chaos we keep our settlements, cities, roads, and knights in tidy 3D printed hex-boxes. The boxes have snap-fit lids with a slot to help with opening. We 3D printed a lot of boxes, to hold our standard Catan pieces, our [Extra Catan Pieces](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:239439), our [3D Catan Numbers](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:162420), and some extra bits and pieces we use for our House Rules. The closed hex-bowls fit sideways in the Catan box, together with our [Catan Card Holders](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:161688), to keep things organized in one box so we can set up quickly when we want to play. These bowls were designed in Fusion 360. To get started using Fusion 360, check out our article [Tutorial Tuesday 15: First Steps with 3D Design Software Fusion 360](https://www.shapeways.com/blog/archives/30815-tutorial-tuesday-15-first-steps-fusion-360.html). Or, if you just want to print these same 3D models, download them here from the "Thing Files" menu. Have fun, and best of luck against the barbarians and robbers! Optimized for printing on a Replicator 2. You may need to slightly scale the lid for correct snap-fitting if using another printer. ===== #####Twitter: [twitter.com/mathgrrl](https://twitter.com/mathgrrl) #####Hacktastic blog: [www.mathgrrl.com/hacktastic](http://www.mathgrrl.com/hacktastic) #####Shapeways geekhaus store: [www.shapeways.com/shops/mathgrrl](https://www.shapeways.com/shops/mathgrrl) *This design and all associated pictures and files are licensed under the [Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial Share Alike](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/) license.
