Thin Terrain: Hex Tiles 4mm x 33 (Crack Pattern)

thingiverse

I am posting this as an early prototype to get feedback from the community. Thin Terrain requires TPU or other flexible filament for the connectors. Please read entire description and post any questions or comments, I am looking for as much feedback as I can get. I have been interested in making a 3d printed thin tile system that was first and foremost Modular and reusable, but also, reasonably quick to print, easy to store, and simple to put together. It also need to stay connected to each other and not move around too much when moving miniatures. To make sure that I could prototype, scale, and create alternate versions I decided to use OpenSCAD for the creation of all of the tiles and connectors. My breakthrough moment for Thin Terrain came when I realized I could use TPU plastic to create flexible connectors to make the board hold together without snap tight locking systems. This is the first terrain style 'cracks' which is randomly generated using OpenSCAD. The size of the hexes and the shapes are based off what is needed to create Gloomhaven boards. As I get print time, I will post images of a few rooms or maybe a complete scenario map.
