Description

The original Hextraction game board had perfectly vertical walls, causing a tight fit with game tiles. This version has walls that are slightly angled outward (drafted) so that tiles don't get stuck in the game board.

I provided files that can accommodate smaller print beds. A standard board can be made with only the files named "Honeycomb" and "Diamond". The "Triangle" file is needed if you want to expand your board in length.

I've included a "Map" of the model configuration for a standard board and larger board in the download.

Example of parts not fitting

Reninzo1 year ago

This is really helpful since so far I've had to file down each tile I've printed to fit the other boards. Would it be possible to get a drafted version of this single row as well so that the board could be extended to be five tiles high in the center (As opposed to only 4 or 6)? https://thangs.com/designer/Zammster/3d-model/Hextraction%205-5%20Plate-857242

Also, I finally got around to printing out the gutters for a second super fancy board and these board sections don't fit those or the standard clips. It's like the hexes are too close together.
