I've just launched a Kickstarter called the Tabletop Hex Terrain Toolkit. It's currently 300% funded and lets you cut accurate interlocking hexes (including hills, cliffs and rivers) from polystyrene. Take a look – I think you'll be impressed:

That is probably one of the coolest kickstarters I have seen. Great idea, and decent price too.

This is BRILLIANT!

Innovative!

Ohhh I like this a lot

Jason O Mahony05 Nov 2016 8:13 a.m. PST

Definitely one of the most original and useful ones that I have seen.

very cool

Masterful!
Maybe soonish…

If only he'd had not this music half covery what he says.

Glad to hear people like it.

Jcfrog – sorry if the music detracted – I did try to keep it quiet enough. I have added subtitles which you can turn on by clicking the 'cc' button on the bottom right of the video, if that helps.

Looks good, backed.

Looks to be very well executed. Backed it last night.

I'm interested.

(Posting so I can find this thread again.)

What an incredibly clever idea!

Looks good. If i had a concern it would be aligning the top and bottom basic hex jig. Putting bolts though – unless dead on 90• will introuce minor variations in the vertical sides as they are cut (ie the two pieces may mot be 100% above/below each other

But will be interested to see how people get on

And of course, cutting hundreds of foam hexes is one thing – finishing them is another – says the guy with tube loads of GHQ foam hexes

Codsticker05 Dec 2016 12:21 p.m. PST

Great idea. It doesn't look like there is an option to get a bigger jig to make larger hexes(unless I missed it) which is too bad.
