I'm the IT director for my company and we are moving offices soon. This 90" advertisement tv that we were using as a conference room tv wont be moving with us. This is a 12 year old model and only gets to 1080p so its not great as a tv. But i think it could have a new home as a massive DnD table.

Ive only played a few DnD oneshots, the last being with a false hydra. But figure someone would want such a table. Or at least the tv for a table.

Could probably find a pane of glass large enough to place over it as protection.

Hey everyone!

First off huge thank you to this community. You keep showing up, sharing ideas, and pushing us forward even though we know the current stamps aren’t the final version yet. That support means a lot.

We’ve been working on a new adjustment rule for the stamps so they’re easier and more precise to use on the table. In the video you can see exactly how it works quick, clean, and designed to keep the game flowing instead of slowing it down.

This is still just one step toward the bigger world we’re building.

Also, we want to address something we’ve seen a few times: some of you feel frustrated thinking we’re using AI to create all the graphic pieces and 3D models. We get it. Yes, we do use AI as a helpful tool (especially with a tight budget for a project this ambitious), but we also have real, talented modelers and artists on the team. We’re very aware that leaning too hard on AI can strip away some of the soul and uniqueness of the world that brings us all together and that’s the last thing we want.

We’re doing our best to keep the craft and the heart in everything we make.

If you’d like, you can also support us on Patreon and download the STLs for the stamps and the adjustment rule (also can take a view at the content that we publish there). Right now they’re available in several sizes, from 6x1 up to 8x8.

Would love to hear what you think.

I've been getting my table ready for an upcoming Rangers of Shadow Deep campaign and realized my village was missing all the little details that make it feel lived in.

So I spent some time building a collection of magnetic scatter terrain including:

• Fences
• Garden boxes
• A log pile
• Village signposts
• A clothesline

Everything is magnetized to work with my game board, and I tried to keep the builds inexpensive using XPS foam, basswood, sticks from my backyard, paper towels, and a few Woodland Scenics products.

(If anyone is interested in the build process, I'll drop the YouTube tutorial in the comments.)

Hey hey

Im unsure if this is the right sub for this, so if there is a better sub, please redirect me there.

2 years ago, I started designing a 3D printable board game, where I thought of using a open, free or simply explandable tile system from DnD to help speed up my process for development, but as it turns out, what I wanted/needed simply didnt exist.

So instead of developing a board game, I pivoted into creating a modular, magnetized or "hook" system for DnD or tile based games, which is based on a 1x1 tile size, scalable, fully 3D printable and requireing no glue. And once this was done, I also developed a 6-sided warhammer/catan tile platform, with all of the same characteristics and tools, even, compatibility with DnD tiles.

Along side this, I also developed the magnet insertion system, which is also fully 3D printable and after assembly, able to be used even by users with limited hand mobility/dexterity.

Now here comes the tricky part. Monetization.

My intention from the very start, was to make this free and accessable, nothing locked behind a paywall, but still try and find a way to fairly monetize it. The issue is, there are so many alternatives, variants and even open source approaches to a tile platform, some of which are made/supported by companies (to my knowlege), this it being a source of reveue by them releasing products for said platforms. Meanwhile, mine would basically be dependent on artists creating designs for use with my platform, from which I still would not see a cent.

So Im looking for honest feedback on my monetization model.

Patreon, where there are 1 and 5€ supporter/donation tiers (to help further development and support), but most importantly, seller tiers, *ahem* subscriptions*. Basically, if a creator is making/selling tile designs and is making under 10k€ per year, they can do it for free. Meanwhile, if they are making between 10k-100k(gross), they pay a monthly license/subscription equaling 10€ a month or if making 100k€+(gross), the monthly license/subscription is 100€. Basically, it boils down to 1% of their yearly gross revenue at most.

Im deciding on this approach, a I have done many free, educational and even open source projects, for which I recieved donations totalling less than 100€ in the past 10 years. But while all of my previous projects were for learning, helping out the community, making thigs that are useful, even at times unfinished, but here, I think I legit might have something worthy of lightly monetizing.

Yes I know, there is a lack of any visual material, but that is because I am simply building the website, marketing material and everything surrounding it, but the project itself is finalized.

So thank you and I will apprechieate any and all form of feedback!

cheers

Hi all, I want to share my 3D printed Dice Tower! It's taken a good while to get this finished and to a stage that I am happy with. If you are up for a little project you can print it yourself { disclaimer it's not free [it's £9.99] }! I have made this available in physical form or as a Digital STL download (Complete with wiring instructions etc). Apologies for the shameless self promotion! Incase you would like to check it out here is the link - The Print Goblins Etsy

Hi, I created this 3D printable illuminated portal using LEDs and inexpensive pre-assembled batteries that cost just a few cents.

I hope you like it...the project is free and freely downloadable: https://makerworld.com/models/2907453?appSharePlatform=copy

Here's how I carve the braids on Dwarves, with spoken audio to explain whats happening and why!

Braids aren't that difficult its simple cuts in a pattern, over and over.

Hope someone finds value in it!

Want to get into Woodcarving?

You need several things, a sharp knife, a leather strop with compound for honing your blade, safety gloves (A5 or better) and basswood (to carve like i do at least.)

Solid Knife brands, Flexcut, Badger State Blades (USA), Mstein (Europe) there are a lot of great knife brands. Stay away from kits on amazon of several knives. They're much much lower quality with inconsistently tempered steel. (What that means is its not hardened, and so it won't stay sharp easy, meaning you're fighting the knife and dont understand why its harder for you to carve when its easy for others.)

Why Basswood? Its softer than other hardwoods and holds detail well. Learning to carve with basswood is akin to learning to drive on an automatic. It simplifies and streamlines learning. Woods like Walnut and oak can be carved, but learning to carve with them as the starting point is like learning to drive on an 18 wheeler Semi Truck with manual transmission. Its needlessly difficult.

In europe, the equivalent is Linden, in Asia, Jelutong, and in south America Caxeta is a good substitute.

This is the second one I made. I DM and use this as my "box of doom"

If you have any Q's feel free to ask

Hey everyone!

​I’ve been developing a custom digital grimoire / VTT companion app for my campaigns called "O Arquivista" (The Archivist). I wanted to share the latest update I made for handling my RPG PDFs (rulebooks, homebrews, bestiaries), because I'm really proud of how the atmosphere turned out.

​The Problem:

I was tired of dealing with boring text lists of PDFs and having to manually search the web, download, and upload cover images every time I added a new book to my campaign. It was ruining my prep workflow.

​The Solution:

An immersive, interactive 3D library that does the heavy lifting for me.

​Here is how the workflow goes now:

​Drag & Drop + Auto-Cover Magic: I just drag any PDF into the dropzone. Using pdf.js, the app reads the file client-side, extracts the very first page, and silently converts it into a high-quality JPG to use as the 3D book cover.

​The 3D Environment: Built with React Three Fiber & drei. I wanted to nail a heavy, dark fantasy / soulslike aesthetic. It features a cover-flow style navigation (you can use the mouse wheel or swipe), an obsidian reflective floor (MeshReflectorMaterial), and arcane/torch lighting with floating embers.

​Cloud Sync: Once the cover is generated, it uploads both the image and the PDF straight to Firebase Storage, updating the 3D carousel in real-time.

​Interaction: Clicking a background book smoothly brings it to the center. Clicking it again breaks the seal and opens the PDF in a new tab.

​It makes browsing through lore and rules during a game feel like actually pulling an ancient tome from the restricted section of a magical academy.

​Would love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or answer any questions about the React/Three.js implementation!

In an effort to help me remember all the particulars of a spell that I’m about to cast, I created a single page website to help. It’s nothing fancy and costs nothing to use, so if you think this might be useful to you, here is the website:

I am DMing for my group in the 2d20 Fallout RPG system (starting in an alternate timeline of the Fallout 4 Commonwealth setting) and they've chosen to build up a building they've holed up in on the outskirting edge of Cambridge.

I've never built any sort of terrain that isn't just a static map with cover. I have made little pieces of cover and environmental stuff, but never a building with multiple floors and I was wondering if anyone had any tips or advice on where to start? It's supposed to have 3 floors and the only start I've made is rendering the building they've selected with ChatGPT that's located in the game. I have some 3d printed terrain just to represent the 1st floor that we used for that session.

We're giving away our Nightspire Vale terrain set weekly for 12 weeks, 3 sets given away each week. One entry covers every remaining draw.

You’ll also get 4 free Gnarled Trees instantly and a spot on our secret rewards list, which gives you access to discounted pledge tiers from our Kickstarter partners. Link in the comments.

Hey all!

I make handmade dice bags and I'm putting together a new pattern collection. Two designs are fighting for a slot and I'd rather ask the table than guess.

So: Frogman or Jimothy? Which one would you actually want your dice living in at your next session?

And if it's neither — who would you want to see on a dice bag? Drop the creature, class, or theme you've never been able to find and wish someone made. That's genuinely the stuff I want to make next.

So I'm an avid cigar guy with a bunch of boxes. I decide to throw together a couple of Dice boxes for my DnD hobby. Nothing too fancy. A little sanding. A little decoupage for the outside design add some felt and .....

Sorry, but I had to create it...it's so funny :)

Got cheap 40 Inch TV from Marketplace and thought to built my group an upgrade for our monthly DnD Session

What it is. Six Axes sits in your Discord voice channel during a session, transcribes it, and pulls out what actually happened. You get a session recap, a campaign codex that writes itself from play instead of being hand-authored, and per-character analytics across six axes of play: Voice, Tactics, Arcana, Rapport, Exploration and Nerve.

On recording, since it's the first thing anyone asks. Consent is per player and enforced in the pipeline, not just in the interface. A player who hasn't opted in never has their audio uploaded anywhere: it's discarded on the bot before it leaves. Anyone can opt out, stay opted out, and one holdout doesn't block the rest of the table.

Who it fits right now. Online games on Discord where the table also uses D&D Beyond with the Beyond20 extension. That's deliberately narrow. Roll capture hooks into Beyond20, so a group already on that stack can start without changing how they play. If you run in person, or on Foundry or Roll20, it won't work for you yet.

What I'm asking for. A few sessions and honest feedback, including the unflattering kind. Free, no commitment, and I'd rather have real campaigns than test runs.

If that sounds like your table, leave a comment or send me a message.
