"looking for 3D printing project" Topic

Hello all

Looking for anyone on here or if you know of someone to do a small 3D project for me. Looking to have made 25 3D printed 3" hexes, an probably 1/4" to 1/2 inch thick. Wanting to try an use them for CY6 games. where you don't have to use a hexed mat. Just a curious thought an wanting to see if its worth the effort to try this idea. I planned to place magnets on the side of the hexes so they can be linked together for movement. Any thoughts or suggestions please an thank you.

Have a word with Tim @ Kings Hobbies.

Or you could go for mdf;

That'll cost a fortune for a 3-D print.

Better to have them made out of resin, or laser cut, I suspect.

If I were you, I'd just mark some hexes on a fabric mat of the desired size, and call it good. Much cheaper and easier to carry around to games.

I did this with mdf bases at the Joy of 6 show in July. Inspired by the old Heroclix |Crimson Skies system. Worked very well. I'd recommend using a clear sheet template for measuring range – use the mdf hexed and raw round them with a Sharpie!

I'd be up to give it a shot. I've already done similar stuff on my printer and it wouldn't be that expensive if you are sticking to the numbers you mention.

Drop me a line at tim dot gerritsen at gmail dot com to discuss (I see you can't get PMs).

Thanks all for the info an suggestions it really helped.
