Base Plate for Miniatures

Description

Usage

Separate Base (glue on)
  • Decide if you want a "hexagonal" or "circular" 
  • Measure your base and modify P.size in mm
  • Define your thickness by modifying P.thickness in mm
  • Define the magnet size via P.magnet_diameter and P.magnet_height in mm
    OR remove it by setting P.do_magnet = no 
  • Generate the model P.do_export=yes will generate the STL file  
  • Add it to your slicer, setup, print and glue it to your miniature
Integrated Base (to a model of your liking)
  • Open a miniature model in your slicer
  • Decide if you want a "hexagonal" or "circular" 
  • Measure your base and modify P.size  in mm
  • Define your thickness by modifying P.thickness in mm
  • Define the magnet size via P.magnet_diameter and P.magnet_height in mm
    OR remove it by setting P.do_magnet = no 
  • Generate the model P.do_export=yes will generate the STL file  
  • Add it to the miniature model, adapt the position to your liking.
  • Slice, print and post your make
