Modifications
Compared to sgreasby on Thingiverse, I made the following adjustments using Inkscape.
- Recolored lines and roof images for easier engraving on Glowforge
- Removed clips on roof images, cropped, and re-inserted cropped images (Glowforge doesn't support clipping in svg)
- Increased the tolerance on the joints since pieces were originally too tight a fit using my laser
- Replaced the logo with a more detailed one, though I ended up liking it better without the logo at all
- Split the side walls of the tray to add a gap for the tower roof so the tower could lay inside the tray
- Extended the length and width of the tray a few mm to better fit the tower (upright and laying down)
- Increased the height of the opening from the tower into the tray (dice were getting stuck sometimes)
Glowforge Settings
- Material preset: “Medium Draftboard”
- Roof panels: “3D Engrave”
- Blue lines: “HD Graphic” engrave
- Cut lines: Changed “Proofgrade Cut” from 168/Full to custom 155/Full
