A 3x3x3 game of tic tac toe with a twist. This is for someone who loves all the passthrough stuff and looking for something more interesting and functional.

Various game rules are available on the internet, or you could just make up your own.

Easy to print, no support. You can print the case with no logo by printing that tray with just 1 color. The pieces will slide in with ease, just as you’d expect.

1. Open up the top shell of the case by lifting one side of it to disengage the magnets,
2. do the same with the board inside and the turn the board 90 degrees and place in one of the case shells so that the magnets are not touching,
3. you're ready to play!

4. Once a game is completed, simply lift up the board from the case and the pieces will fall out automatically.

    

   

   

It requires eight(8) 4x2mm magnets, although it has slots for 16, you should only use 2 magnets each on 2 halves of the case, and 2 on either side of the board,. This is so that you can turn the board 90 degrees while playing, so the board can be lifted from the case with ease. It's a tight fit for the magnet on PLA Matte, you may or may not need glue for the filament of your choosing. Please pay careful attention to the poles of the magnet so that you'll be able to close the case.

When. It in use, turn the board so the magnets match and the whole set will be secured in your pocket or bag until you find another player.
