The White Castle insert (supports sleeves)

Description

This is an insert designed to fit the game The White Castle. It does support sleeved cards. (I used Arcane Tinmen matte sleeves and they fit. Super thick sleeves migt not fit—this is a small box for all the stuff it has in it!) This is one of the tightest fitting games I've ever designed an insert for, so the design is a bit unusual. In particular, the players' heron pieces actually slide in under each other to make everthing still fit. NOTE 1: This insert will NOT hold the cardboard bridge assemblies unless you disassemble them, and even then you might get a slight bit of lid lift. (I can't get those to fit—at least without disassembling them—even without the insert. While they add nice character to the game, they do make it difficult to see the gardener areas so I don't use the bridges anyway. Of course, YMMV.) NOTE 2: There is only room for one rulebook. Hopefully this isn't a problem for most people. The boxes with lids print best at 0.16 line height (0.4 nozzle) but 0.20 is OK for everything else. You really want to use 0.16 (or lower) for the boxes with lids as there are some small but steep overhangs that are supported much better by a slightly smaller line height. (Check your slice preview.) No supports are needed if you print at 0.16 or lower. I printed these with 15% gyroid infill, but you can use 10% infill if you increase the number of top shell layers by one (or if you don't care about slight imperfections in the bottoms of the boxes). PLA/PLA+ works great for all of these. Finally, the lids for all the boxes are friction fit and fit the bottom of their boxes so they don't get lost during play. The tolerances on these can be somewhat tight, but they came out beautifully on my Bambu X1C. Model specific notes follow: <code>cards_box_1.stl</code>, <code>cards_box_2.stl</code> - Print one of each. You can add color on layer 4 or 5 (depending on line height) to make the embossed lettering at the bottom stand out. <code>dice_box.stl</code>, <code>dice_box_lid.stl</code> - Holds all 15 dice. Print one of each. You can probably print these together on the same plate. <code>money_box.stl</code>, <code>money_box_lid.stl</code> - Holds the various cardboard tokens (money and Daimyo). Print one of each. You can probably print these together on the same plate. <code>player_box.stl</code>, <code>player_box_lid.stl</code> - Holds all the player meeples and markers. The heron token is stored on the end of the box (outside of it). Print four of each box/lid pair, one in each player color (if you so choose). You can probably print one pair of box/lid together on the same plate. <code>setup_box.stl</code>, <code>setup_box_lid.stl</code> - Holds the game board tokens used to setup the game. Print one of each. You can probably print these together on the same plate. <code>turn_token_box.stl</code> - Holds the big wooden turn token. This is optional, but makes everything fit nicely. Print one of these.
