D&D Floor Tile Fog Emitter - OpenForge Compatible

So recently I was gifted a mini fog machine. It works great and I figured why not ingrate it into my dungeon tiles. I saw nothing previous looked to exist, so I booted up Fusion 360 and made these.

By making just the emitter portion, you can merge this with any tiles of your choosing. All you need to do is put a 13 mm hole in the center of the floor tile.

The tubing used to connect these is a clear PVC tube, 3/16" in diameter with a wall thickness of 1/32".

Notes:

You might be able to print these on a filament machine but I was not. My machine has a max resolution of 0.2mm layer height and I have a 0.4mm nozzle on it. So instead I used my resin machine and made these with no trouble.

How To

Preparation

If you want to print the tile with the emitter embedded, you can. Otherwise, just glue it in place afterwards.

To prepare the tile:

1. Open the STL in your favorite mesh editing software.

Cut a 13 mm diameter hole in the center of the floor tile. Merging the Emitter & the Tile (Optional)

Import 'Floor Emitter - Emitter.stl' into the editing software that your tile is currently in.

Align the emitter with the bottom of the textured portion of the tile.

• With OpenForge tiles, this is the bottom of the tile without any base on it.

Merge the meshes. Be sure to choose a merge method that does not reduce hard edges or otherwise will mis-align the screw threads. What to print per floor tile

• 1 Emitter - This can be separate or merged as described above.
• 1 Connector
• Up to 4 Barbs
• Up to 4 Plugs Print any combination of plugs and barbs for a total of 4 as that is how many holes the connector has.

Post-Printing

Depending on the detail levels of your printer, you might need to clean up the holes and threads. A small hand drill bit works great for opening up the holes in the top emitter. I also used a thread cutting kit to clean up the built in threads on the pieces.

Updates

• 2020-01-07
  • Removed threads from Barb, Plug, and associated holes. These now will be pressure fit or glued in place.
    • Adjusted diameter of Connector vertical throat to increase multi emitter distribution
    • Added bevels for ease of attachment
    • Adjusted height of E Base tile and added alignment text
