This box is designed to be generated according to your configuration. STL and print profiles are provided as EXAMPLES. Use the Customize button to generate and download your box.

The lid of this box can be attached in multiple orientations, allowing it to be utilized as a discard pocket/compartment. The compact design makes it a great module for your board game insert and helps to save precious space on your gaming shelve and table.

You can:

• customize it to fit cards of different sizes including protection sleeve compensation
• generate a box to store other board game assets like tiles, player sheets, tokens, etc.
• use it as an organization module in your board game insert
• place dividers* to improve content management
• emboss custom text and SVG image**
• share photos of your boxes in the comments
• share your ideas in the comments to implement new customization options

 * - due to Makerworld limitations you can divide the capacity of the box only into equal chunks. Custom divider placement is supported when you open a .scad file in OpenSCAD. Use the Subdivisions option to specify the array of lengths to allocate divisions.

 ** - text and SVG can be customized only in the slicer. Provided print profiles can be used to simplify this process.

Printing tips

• The dimensional accuracy of your printer and filament is critical to achieving a good usage experience with this card holder.
• The Lid SHOULD always be printed perpendicular to the Box. It will guarantee smooth sliding and snapping.
• You can use the Split > To Objects function in a slicer, if you want to print the lid and box on different build plates.
• PETG allows the usage of thinner walls thanks to good layer adhesion and flexibility. However, I printed most test samples in PLA and had no major issues except my own mistakes.
• Use reference print profiles

How to use reference print profiles

The current version of Parametric Model Maker does not have many fonts and does not allow the addition of SVG images. To cover this gap, I made a set of print profiles with a reference box generated to store MTG-size (63.5x88) sleeved cards. Just follow the below steps to generate and print your custom box:

1. Generate and Download STL of your box using the Customizer
2. Choose one of the reference print profiles, read the description of the chosen profile, and download the one you like.
   • Standard (single color)
   • Colored (AMS)
   • Colored (no AMS)
3. Use the Replace STL feature in the slicer and select your box generated in Step 1
4. Edit/adjust/remove/replace sample embossed text and SVG
5. (Optional) modify infill settings if you are printing card holder with a 2mm wall

Assembly

Boxes can be assembled in multiple different configurations which may be useful in different game mechanics.

IMPORTANT! It might be challenging to assemble a freshly printed box, especially in “L-shape”. You will need to use a gentle force the first few times, but after ~5-10 assembly cycles it will work like a glove. Adjust tolerance if you struggle to get dimensionally accurate, snappy result with your printer or filament.

Position	Description	Showcase
Closed	Slide the lid from top to bottom till it snaps in place. Use it when you don't play the game :) You can easily store it in the box of your board game.
Reversed	Slide the lid from bottom to top leaving the opening only from one side of the card holder. Useful when you can only draw cards to your hand or another deck with a separate discard pile.
The Office	Attach the lid to the back of the box to form a vertical rack. Draw cards from the top and discard them to the bottom, or vice versa, depending on your need to see a discard pile.    * - This assembly can be done only when the stack height is lower than the height of the box
L-shape	Slide the box with cards into the corner of the lid. It is best applicable when the game mechanic allows you to see the top of the discard pile and draw from it.
Flat	Snap the lid to the bottom of the box and put it flat on the table. Another position with a discard pile on display.
Secret	Use your imagination :)	???
