All right, here goes, subject to the standard terms described here:
Meeple Coasters - v3 JTB.zip (81.2 KB)
Assembly is pretty straightforward:
- Cut the wooden parts from desired Proofgrade or other plywood. I used 3mm Baltic Birch, but Medium Proofgrade Maple Ply would probably yield very similar results.
- Everything should fit within a single 12x20 sheet.
- Remember to set the plain meeple outlines to SCORE. Everything else is a cut.
- The holder includes depth options for 4, 6, or 8 coasters (assuming your materials have similar thickness to mine). Just print the largest sides & bottom if you want a full set of 8.
- Cut the foam parts.
- I used 2mm EVA. See Birch Ply and EVA Foam Coasters for suggested settings.
- These use the same cut pattern as the outer wooden edge (the plain rounded square).
- Lightly sand & finish the wooden parts. You’ll likely want several light coats.
- Affix the foam to the wooden coasters. I used a water-resistant spray adhesive, sprayed onto the back side of the wooden coasters. That way, the adhesive doesn’t get onto the visible portion of the foam.
- Assemble holder using your preferred glue.
- Enjoy your enhanced gamer geekiness.
