I love Hangbar3d's Yahtzee in a cup design. As I'm obsessed with printing travel edition games, I miniaturised it. My version is based around 12mm dice. The end result is a complete Yahtzee package that only takes up 55x55x70 mm, just 37% the volume of Hangbar3d's!

Design
To make the package smaller, I couldn't just reduce the scale in the slicer; the pencils wouldn't have fitted and the screw threads would have become much tighter.
As such, I redesigned the core from the ground up. However, I'm crap at designing complex techincal stuff, so I used CNCArtist's excellent utility capsules for the exterior with the screw threads.


I also included a score card PDF that can be cut into three strips to be rolled up in the base. I recommend printing them double sided.

Print settings
I used 0,20 mm resolution, but you could easily get away with 0,30. Only the dice were printed at 0,12 mm These are the dice I printed. On the cup, I enabled fuzzy skin and set that to voronoi, which resulted in a really nice texture. A tricolour filament for the base would look fun!

One big shortcoming
As much as we like to believe that 3d printers can solve all the world's problems, we are sadly not yet able to print pencils using carbon-filled filaments. Until that day, we are cursed to use something other than printed parts. Prepostorous, I know!
A standard length pencil can be cut into three 6 cm sections.
