Carpe Diem Insert

This is my organizer for Carpe Diem. 

The other designs available on thingiverse were too big to print on my creality so I decided to create a new one.

<div><p>Simple insert for Valeria Card Kingdoms and the BIG BOX.  It will hold sleeved cards.</p>
<p>As I recall, I have an extra bag of tokens from one of the Kickstarters, and as far as I know, all the content for VCK.  I find this a nice, clean, simple solution that lets you pull the middle trays out for use on the table.</p>
<p>You will need to print 4 of the Cards files and 6 of the trays files.</p>
<p>Note for eagle-eyed folks: The printed version shown in the photos is not QUITE the same.  I decided to make some changes based on how I originally printed it vs what I know now.  (For example, the originals trays were all separated requiring 12 prints of a single-well tray instead of 6 prints of a double-well.) </p></div>

Grid Dice (foldable)

A little dice I made. It's foldable so you can print, fold and glue.

Make sure the model will be firmly sticked to the bed. I used glue stick.

The size was optimized to print with 2 perimeters (0.4 nozzle).

Slower speeds are better.
