Overview
After twenty iterations of prototypes ranging from chaotic to semi-functional, this design finally does what I wanted: put all commonly used spell templates, rulers, cones, radii, cubes and a modular movement chain into one compact box.
Everything assembles for play, disassembles for storage and fits into dual-color trays that keep parts flat, organized and protected during transport.
Now with a locking mechanism for anyone who travels with their setup.
If your table used to look like mine did (paper cones, bent rulers, mystery radiuses) this toolkit might be your new best friend.
Your players may disagree.
