HeroClix Double Dial

(WORK IN PROGESS)

This model is a redesign of a HeroClix custom dial with the following improvements: 

• Redesigned the Base for Double Dial
• Redesigned the Top to allow for custom insert of 2d printed dial info
• Added color ring to dial top for Old School version players
• Added Double Dial Cover for model attachment and to secure paper info (note: Dial cover is WIP currently may obscure range for multiple targets, points over 100, and/or names long names, I would recommend adding negative part simples if more space is needed.

Instructions for 3D printed Parts:

• Dial Top should be printed right-side-up with flush standard supports, add in a manual color change for the ring if using a mono-filament printer.
• Dial Bottom prints fine without support but quality of the raised surface on the bottom may vary depending on your print settings.
• Dial cover is pretty thin, depending on your printer settings I would print on a small layer height and make sure to let cool before removal. consider increasing its thickness if quality is not consistent. 
  • to make the dial cover flush with the top it should be printed around 0.80mm thick
  • For a nicer finish consider printing it upside down so the plate texture shows.

Instructions for 2D printed Parts:

• Custom dials can be made here: https://www.clixmaker.com/ (note that point values are not calculated by this site)
• 2x Top dial info should be printed with a diameter of ~27.5mm 
• Bottom dial info should be printed with a diameter of ~25.5mm

Additional tools needed:

• Crazy Glue
• Scissor or Hole Puncher

Assembly Instruction:

1. 3D print all parts.
2. 2D print custom paper parts.
3. Cut out a hole on the bottom paper dial along the black lines, place a small amount of glue to avoid color bleeding or a wet look - a Q-tip or toothpick may be helpful to get an even spread. 
4. Cut out the white trapezoid on one of the Top paper dials. glue the two papers to the Top in a similar fashion to the first part. when placing the back dial top make sure its properly aligned so the dial cover wont obscure any parts.
5. Glue the cover onto top top, similarly apply a small amount of glue. make sure to get the edges and then hold together for around 30 seconds to a minute to assure the it glues flush. When applying pressure glue will spread out and may obscure text if there is too much.
