Hi everyone! If you make your own 3D Catan Set we want to see it! Show us on our facebook page here: facebook.com/MSEBuilds
This is so cool and cute. How much does it cost?
I downloaded the files from your Patreon. The wool files are missing. They're labeled as wool, but three of them are wood.
@@reevesjustin Hi! I just checked and you are correct! We're going to get that fixed and I'll let you know so you can redownload it. Thanks for the head's up!
Nice project!
Wouldn't this be considered copyright infringement though?
How to shuffle the landscapes at the beginning of a round tho. : / taking away the fun in the game.
This is awesome. I legit want this board. Its not the printing thats hard, its the PAINTING
Haha for me it is time consuming for painting, but the printing is hard; I dont know how to do or set up that up!!🤯
Crap, I'm about halfway through printing a set, but have never painted anything in my life. My wife and I are painting it as a summer project.
The vid showed more time painting, but they probably spent more time tweaking the models in the computer and setting things up for the printer.
How to shuffle the landscapes at the beginning of a round tho. : / taking away the fun in the game.
@@Anudorini-Talah you can still shuffle them though
This deserves more views
I've always wanted to make a 3D Catan set like this. But this is Way cooler than what I was envisioning! A set like this for Carcassone would be awesome too.
Really awesome! Not just the final result, but the production along showing the procedure makes it very compelling.
Hi everyone! Thanks for visiting. We've had an especially difficult 2020, but we are settled in a new state and have plans for more epic videos soon, so stay tuned!
- Adam
Looking forward to it!
Great news about the video...sorry to hear about your 2020...it’s been a horrible year. Im wishing you and your family well!
Just found this video! I would love to see more of your process! I am new to 3D printing and would die for some tips on how to modify thingiverse items to fit my needs as you did in this video!
@@alexanderpurdyvalle Hi and thanks for the kind words! It's a bit tough to give specifics of the printing process since all printers and materials require different settings (and our settings likely won't work perfectly for everyone), but we do plan to show more of the modeling and printing processes in future videos.
please keep making content this channel will blow up
@@SomethingEpic Hey! Just wanted to say that I'm really looking forward to more videos, this one was awesome :))
This is an exceptional video! Your production quality is amazing and you clearly had a lot of fun doing this project. Great work!
can't wait to see more of your projects, enjoy your time!
Whoa! This really turned out cool fellas! Well done 👍 😊
This is great! I'm going to hand craft one in porcelain including magnets this month. What an inspiring design.
This is the absilute best rendition of this Ive seen. Great work! My brother will love one of these sets. That means Ill have to make 2! Amazing work guys
Such a cool project! Thanks for sharing the process and experiences 🤝
This video was amazing. I have one piece of advice, and that is to thin your paints. A lot. Ideally for model painting, the paint should be well thinned, and you apply multiple thin coats. It helps retain more detail of the original piece. But truly, amazing build!
Coolest 3D printing project I've ever seen in 10+ years of 3D printing! Great job guys
Wow it's been so long since I've played this game I forgot it existed this so epic. This brings back some really good memories for me I have to get a set and play with my friends again. Thanks man.
Really good job, a lot of work, turned out great
This is amazing! Excellent job!
Thank you for showing all your steps. I don't see myself as artistic and I have not done any 3D printing. However, your video makes it seem approachable. Looks great!
Great job!! Very impressed.
3D printed Catan is so awesome. It looks much better than the cardboard tiles.The magnets are a great idea. I kinda wish I'd used the magnet model when I printed mine a couple years ago.
This is beautiful!! keep on making!!
Looking forward to seeing more videos.
excellent makes the gameplay more engaging
One of those things I didn’t know I needed, and now cannot live without
I just printed mine and going to be painting soon. Surprising my gf! She loves playing this game all the time. Thank you for this :D
Brilliant! I would have seen more close-ups of the water pieces though, they could be the best in the bunch!
i made a 5 player one for someone . it was fun . and they enjoyed painting all the parts.
awesome custom job! Id pay for a custom Catan board like this so cool
i'd like to thank the algorithm for bringing me to an incredible channel making something i've always wanted to make
Well done!
whoaaaaw.. thats just incredible, fantastic job guys, I want this so badly... for me and to gift to all my catan addicted friends...
Although there are some things that I would change in my version of a custom Catan game...the one thing that you did that I think is genius is making the robber a dragon! I recently looked to upgrade my robber as well and was simply going to use a miniature of a thief (robber).
It never dawned on me to use something else...like a dragon! Brilliant!!
This is so good
hicieron el juego como debió ser comercializado!! es lo mas hermoso que he visto en mi vida
Incredible work! Definitely needs more views. I wish you were selling them. I'd be curious, if you can simplify the process a bit to go retail, what it would cost to get this made. 🤔
Great job on the project. I might just have to do this one day as well.
Outstanding job.
Awesome!
More like EPIC!
This is sweeet!! Might need to pick one of these up
The board looks amazing. I was recently looking at buying a 3D set and instead bought a 3D printer to do it myself. I would love to see how you guys store your set. What about a 5-6 person expansion or even there sea expansion.
We don't have a great storage solution at the moment. We're currently using a wooden box we bought on Amazon. We would also like to do an expansion as well. Stay tuned!
Great video! Keep making videos and subscribers I am sure will come! They usually.come after a year or year and a half of great videos like this
👏👏👏👏 great! Just wow!!! Keep the good work. I wish to make something like this but I don’t even have a 3D printer :(
Id like to get ahold of the stl for the paint shield you guys made. That is nice
insane! great stuff :D
All games with tile building should have magnets built in. Amazing job guys!
I am currently painting a set of terraforming mars tiles. This will have to be my next 3d printing project for a board game.
Great video! I would love to see more content in the future :)
so we have catan here as well, but i have never seen hose boring blocky wood houses, we have always had plastic houses and city's wich are actually quite pretty looking
Responding to a 3 year old video: One of the first things I 3d printed when I got my very first 3d printer was a Catan board. Gave it away to a friend when he moved. It was really cool to have and just added an amazing dimension to the game. Must be why there is an official 3d board now.
went out all with production here
This is the coolest set of catan I have seen. It would be sooooo awesome if you als make the sea tiles and boots whicht come with the seafarers extension
One of the frames at 3:01 is a muchhh better thumbnail I feel. I would've clicked on the video straight away!
Thanks for the comment. That's good feedback!
Awesome! Very awesome! Very, very, awesome, etc...
Awesome video!
Was deciding on printing this version or the other popular version out there, and decided on this one due to the great straight edges around the outside of the game board. In your video you mentioned that you edited the city/settlement to make them more distinct. Do you have the STL file for that? I agree that they are similar, but haven't gotten into modeling just yet.
Nice work guys - this looks great. Now I just need to convince my fiends to play table top games
WOW... I just sold my Catan game cause I was bored with it. You guys made it interesting again. Ever thought of producing and selling? I would buy a set from you!
Que hermoso trabajo, un saludo desde Uruguay . Nosotros con mis amigos hicimos uno pero de carton , te mando un abrazo y saludos a todos
Amazing vid! Do you have a file for the print shields?
Just Great!!
So cool!
Hi. Looks so great!
Approx., how much 3d printer time do you think it took to get all the pieces?
Thanks for sharing 😁
Man I love this and as soon as uni break starts I will definitely get the patreon to get the files! Would it be possible for you guys to incorporate the expansions? I think someone remixed the water and harbour tiles for the sea farers expansion but getting it to work with your ones would be sick! Will definitely pop a subscribe in the hopes of expansions ;) Love the work guys!
The models they modified can be found on thingiverse: www.thingiverse.com/thing:2525047
Expansions are linked in the description.
The best 3D Catan board I’ve seen yet 👍🏼
How many of them have you seen???
Insane!!
well done guys, awesome ! but i hope to know very soon where are you now? after 3 years and just 2 videos
In the video you have the player pieces (roads, settlements, cities) nicely organized in what looks like perfectly-sized little bins. Would you where you got those bins or what size they are? Thanks!
Here are the bins we used. The 2.9x2.9x1 inch ones work perfectly.

Epic!!!
instant sub! keep making videos!
This thing should be in. Board Game museum
Realy cool
Good job!
Man what happened this was an amazing video I was so exited to see more
Well, that settles it! Do it!
We're about to get an Ender 3 v2. Once I have it dialed in really well, we're going to do a 3D Catan board (probably this exact one). How many hours would you say it took to do altogether?
Amazing!
This is pretty dang sweet. What kind of printer do you have?
Amazing production quality of the video. How come you don't have more subs??! :-)
Só não é possível embaralhar as cartas. No mais, é simplesmente maravilhoso.
Doing this with catan: seafarers would be epic
Very cool! How do you store it?
Just became a patron!!! Excited to print this!! How do y'all store your board?
Hi! Thanks for being a Patron! We are in the process of making a 3D printed wooden box for the set. We will post it for our Patrons when it is finished!
Awesome video.
I would love to see more content from you. What happened it seems as if you had plans for more?
´See, there is nothing wrong with having a little hex as a friend.´ And now dear boardgamefriendlyfolks, for some... Titanium White...
That's great. I would love to do this for a game I created but I'm not sure I'm up to doing it. But it would work well I think.
You don't have a 3D printer?
Do you guys have the files for the paint shields? I'd like to use some for my attempt at this project.
I never was interested in Catan. But if they dare to sell it with such miniatures I would try to buy it and give it a go.
Would love this, but what is the approx price to print it, with magnets inside?
It’s magnetic?!? That got me. Take my money. Lol
Did you also make intersection pieces?
Hey, awesome project. And it's great so the the whole provess! Good quality video
This is really nice. I only see one drawback, if you want to play adhoc with extensions.
how did you get the magnets to line up properly?
Really awesome! Of course subscribing. Not just a cool project but an amazing job with the video too.
Even more awesome if you implement cities & knights and seafarers ;)
Thanks! We would love to add more expansions in the future! :)
Do Patreon subscribers get the altered gcode that pauses the print to insert the magnets? I'm not good with the software, so if you offer the updated code files then I'm definitely gonna become a Patreon member.
Holy guacamole.... Using round magnets in cavities so they can rotate freely.... That solves a giant problem i Had with a project
I just finished printing these out and painting them. The game looks excellent. Here are a couple of comments:
Printing using a snapmaker 2.0:
The wool tiles (4,5,6) on the option 2 group are not Wool but wood. Opened the option 1 tiles and they are correct but since my printer has a lot of metal we opted for double printing
the wool tiles (1,2,3)
The cactus on your tiles seem much larger than those on the printable tiles. I would have liked the larger cactus.
My printer had a heck of a time printing the piers on the water tiles. Might be my printer but nearly all of them deformed in some way or another.
The wheat tiles sometimes failed at print as well. There seems to be voids under the wheat bundles that cause the bundles to break off easily.
The dragon is awesome. But difficult to print with a PLA printer. I suggest a resin printer for the dragon and the trophies.
The painting was long and arduous. However, a painting party made short work of it.
Despite my gripes, the finished game looks fantastic and my family has spent quite a few hours playing it.
Hi there! Thanks for the feedback! You were right about the missing wool pieces. If you message us your email address I will send the correct ones to you (We're updating the download as well). I suspect the cavity beneath the wheat may be a slicing error (we have had similar issues) but we'll double check. We've actually had good results printing the dragon using fdm, but a resin printer sure works well for those tiny details.
@@SomethingEpic The Wheat tiles did print better individually. It was when I tried to print all 6 at the same time that I had the error, so you may be correct about the slicing error. And, I'll add that the Dragon issues that I had were mostly due to support generation. And I will admit that I went fairly heavy on the supports.
I wonder how much filament was needed for all the parts. How much time it took to print it. And how long it took to paint them. Respect for the hard work, it turned out great!
Hi! Thanks for the compliment! With the settings we used, we estimate it takes a little less than 2KG of PLA (2 rolls). The time it takes is tough to say for sure, but with one printer on normal settings it would likely take a couple weeks to print them all (accounting for setup time, etc.).
well done guys well done
the houses and roads are so cool looking, well the whole board is but i really dig the houses and roads
