Orrery
« on: January 16, 2022, 02:34:28 PM »
I have been learning how to use my 3d printer and this is partly the result.  I found the file on Thingverse.  I did not want another temple so I revived my plans for an orrery.  The last one did not turn out quite how I envisioned so I constructed another.  The orrery is built of beads, a base, a couple of resin pieces, pins and wire.  Hope you like.




A couple of more photos are on my blog if you are interested.

Very nice.

Just tagging a this on the end rather than starting a new thread.  Built another Mayan style skull rack for my boards.

That's a cool terrain piece. Minimal and highly ominous!

Those are great terrain pieces - they will create lots of atmosphere on the playing board.
