- You have to have at least one interactive trap in your arsenal for Dungeons and Dragons! This trap makes use of a few reed switches, a Conwy board from Terrain Tronics, and some awesome stl files from TigerSkullRPG to make one of the coolest traps around. I also collaborated with TheDMsCRAFT so you actually get two traps for the price of one! Make sure to check out DM Scotty's awesome trap video as well!

Another amazing video! I can’t get over how much work you put into the crafts as well as editing, lighting, camerawork. Top notch!
Thank you Kris, I really appreciate that. It's always good to get feedback...especially when it's a compliment :)
Don't want to alarm you, but you had a Skaven rush across your desk at some point. Pretty spooky stuff.
haha... epic comment.
Lies, everyone knows skaven don’t exist.
heh heh, a tie in to my trap.
Love the pressure plate system. Well done sir.
Thank you !!!
That little mouse with the sign was adorable.
haha...thanks. He almost busted my supports!
I could watch you make theses masterpieces all day, in fact, today I am while I “work” from home. You should capitalise on manufacturing those little tools you’ve made for your craft, folk will absolutely buy them.
I really appreciate that! I’m working on getting my website up and running, I’ll have some fun stuff to offer over there as well. Enjoy working from home today :)
This is a professional video with a table-top set piece of *very* high quality, visual appeal and function.
I would pay real money for this.
Thank you so much :) I really appreciate that !
Aw man, DM's smile is so pure, you can tell he's just having a great time!
Totally...I'm still laughing at the end of this video haha.
Dude, That paint drawer blew my mind!! rips of xps on an angle? Proxxon to the rescue!!
I used some angle sections of aluminum from my home renovation store... XPS works too :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Did you know, that most Toilet paper rolls are the perfect diameter for the average paint bottle? I have been saving these up for months now. The lady thinks i am absolutely crazy, but I think it will all work out.
I plan a wall-mount storage shelf using them!
I only have half the number I need in order to do this project, So a lot more poops, or a tonne of paper mache projects nefore I can start.
I did a similar thing for my spray paints using extra plumbing pipe from work! :)
I LOVE how willing to help other people DM Scotty is and has been. Respect!
A legend!
Thanks, I really love seeing the community of crafters grow.
Very creative idea. Beside the fantastic design of the foam trap, the main trick seems to be the reed switches that are closed by the magnets to complete the led circuits to light them up. Great idea. I’ll have to check out the little circuit board you used, but it looks like just resistive leds and a battery are required with the reed switches to put this together. Thanks for another fun and challenging build,
You got it Kevin.... you got this one... as DM Scotty would say... Go fourth and craft!
Man! Your builds keep getting better and better! This is so epic, and yet, it is NOT one of your epic builds...
So epic, John! Thanks for sharing!!!
Thank you so much. This was a fun build for me through some hard times.... I’m grateful for Scotty working with me in the collaboration! More fun and exciting builds to come!!!
wow that is amazing. beautiful design with crossbow and skulls. and when on different tiles the led turns on, just brilliant. wow beautiful, what an art.
Thank you so much Luc !!!
You don't want to know how much I refreshed the youtube home page waiting for this to pop up. Giving us heads up on the Patreon facebook group was almost cruel.
Haha, awesome.... I’m glad you liked it.
That’s ok, we are swamped at work and I am watching it in 5 minute chunks 😱
Definitely one of my favorite videos of yours. I'm always a fan of adding leds in to a project when possible. Brilliant idea to utilize the magnets and switch and how you can change up the trigger points.
Awesome Adam, I'm glad to hear this one is a top video for you! There really is so much you can do with some simple electronics!
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT I hereby approve this message. :-)
WOW! Just when we think you have reached the peak of your craft; You step up your craft to the next Level! Well done!
Thank you Lance :) ! Always looking to try something new... but most importantly.... I try and have fun!
Superb build!! Looks fantastic and is so detailed! I love the addition of electronics your recent videos have had! Keep up the good work!
I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I appreciate the feedback on the electronics. I want to show as many different styles and materials as I can on the channel.
I love your work John and this trap is a crafting masterpiece. Thank you for letting me visit.
I had a blast working with you Scotty!! I wonder how many PC’s will bite the dust at the hands of our traps :)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT bwhhhaaaaaaaaaaa
This was another exceptional build. Love the clay tool magnet tip...I have so much trouble with magnets =). Thank you for sharing this video. Amazing work and great collaboration with DM Scotty.
Thank you. Yeah that magnet trick should help keep your sanity with magnets.... it’s helped me haha.
You have outdone yourself yet again! Just the other day I was thinking the fireball blast was my new favorite, now this one has taken over!
Oh boy.... the pressure is on :)
Sweet build John! Awesome traps, can’t wait to check out Scotty’s build. Lol, love those bloopers at the end! Love those sculpted spikey projectiles you made too.
Thanks Collin. I’m still laughing at those bloopers.
This is one the best playable traps I've seen, what a design. Great work John!
Thank you Derek !!
Uhmmm.. that sculpting tool with the magnets?! Game changer. Also, the details are always on point. This build is no exception. The reed switch is a great solution to a problem some in the FoamFam have had. Thanks John && DM Scotty!
I'm glad the video helped out Zane! Thanks for swinging by!
Very welcome
we always used a scalpel
So very welcome.
Another really cool video. Not only is it a great build and tutorial, it shows u that anything is possible with imagination and creativity.
Thank you Jennifer... and some electronics haha
@John your cleverness and attention to detail is astounding. Great build!
Thank you very much! 👍
Nice trick on those magnets! That's going to save me so much time. I'm alwas confusing myself. Also, I really love the collab. DM Scotty is amazing and pairing up with you is even more amazing.
Thank you, he’s a really great guy. I’m glad the video can help you out!
That is insanely clever and I love the trick with the magnets! I was confused when you said that you could change the layout of the "pressure plates" and I really wasn't sure how you'd do that. I'm not a very good crafter, but the only things I can think of that would improve this build would be to somehow hide the crossbows with like a magnetic cover (just so as not to give it away to the players unless they discover the room they're hidden in) and maybe to stagger the crossbows so that each one covers a different row of the hallway, cause to me it looks like the spaces between would be "safe zones" and that's what I'd think as a player if I discovered the crossbow room before the trap.
Thank you Blue Wolf :) !!
Yours is overall better, but I really like the originallity of DM Scotty’s build. Both are awesome!
Thanks Kim, yeah Scotty's craft is devious!
Your channel is the best! Quality every time and truly imaginative and creative.
Really kind of you Jan!!🙏. Thank you for the feedback and compliments:)
That magnet trick alone was worth watching this video!
Thanks Elizabeth... yeah I'll be doing that from now on for sure.
Wow! You have stepped it up AGAIN... Amazing!
Right on!!!
After you split the first cut in half, you can just do it again and reglue it after removing the center. Gives you the same effect without the need for digging out material
You can, I mention that in the video. I wanted to eliminate the seam around the perimeter.
This is absolutely the best build of the year for me.( I have the feeling that you're going to prove me wrong soon) You can play without "searches" or "checks" etc. Love the fact that I never have to guess anything with your crafts. You always give directions for everything, like paint colors, plans/schemes, and everything to start the builds and even alternative materials etc. Really love and admire your work.
It occurs to me... What do you think of a player character have a pole to search for traps... What if the owner of that player character arrives to the game with a mini "10 foot pole" with a magnet on the tip?
Thank you I really appreciate the feedback :) That's a cool idea, like a mine sweep. That can make for some other cool ideas with reed switches!
BRILLIANT - design, use of technology great stuff
Right on Mr Aide... thank you!
Like always a wonderful build and definitely something I'm putting on my project list.
Awesome!! I can't wait to use this one!
Both are very awesome. I like them both for different reasons. Very cool.
Thank you Joe !!
You are very welcome. I just finished making miniature alien eggs for a tabletop rpg. Working on finishing a dice tower.
That trap build was awesome, one of the best I've seen
Thank you Rob !!!
Love this trap, awesome concept and implementation.
Thank you Jamie !!
Looking forward to seeing what other great ideas you can come up with for magnets and reed switches.
Me too haha
This is a brilliant idea! Love the reed switch idea, so many possible applications. Awesome stuff John!
Thanks Michael. Terrain Tronics was and is a huge help. Check out his YT channel!
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT will do! I’m gonna get my electronics game in order just so I can play with some of these ideas ;)
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Reed switches everywhere !!! LOL
@@Nat1videos lol yeah a few!
Beautiful build, thanks for sharing!
You got it Brendan... thanks for watching.
What does one say to this video, other than wow amazing! Another fabulous video and the collaboration with DMScotty was great! He is amazing. Your tip on using the sculpting tool to help with the magnetics was an epic tip. I had just used mine a month or so ago on the tavern build. You are so right it makes placing them so much easier. Again, John you continue to amaze with your creativity, keep up the great work and collaboration.
Thank you so much Scotty... Yeah when I thought of the magnet/clay sculpting tool idea it was a total mic drop situation haha
Encore une magnifique vidéo. I love your methode for gluing magnets
Thank you Patrick.... yes, I'm happy with the new technique :)
Such a great piece for a game. I am also visualizing a simpler version that doesn’t have the wiring and uses cheap skull rings. Wouldn’t have the same “wow” factor but would still get the job done. Excellent video.
A great idea Danny.
Lmao the end was hilarious dm scotty got me into builds but his overall personality is great . This build was awesome!
cj I'm still laughing at the end of this video. Thanks :)
heh heh, thanks
Another fantastic video. Thanks for all the inspiration.
Sure thing, glad to hear it inspired you!!!
Pretty good idea with the reed switches. If you wanted to make this trap more "replayable", I can think of using some DIP switches, or maybe one could be enough, to switch between different reed switches on the bottom. Of course it would require more reed switches and wiring, but it will be unpredictable even for players who played it already, since you can mount the DIP switch on the bottom, so the set configuration will not be visible. The "ultimate" approach, as I could imagine, would be to use full matrix of reed switches under the floor and to have one DIP switch for each column (LED). Then it will be endlessly configurable, however to keep it simple, I think even two variants for each column would be plenty.
Tons of cool ideas! Run with it !
My pleasure. Fun fact is that I've never actually played D&D or made mini like that, I just like watching the builds.
I have been using a similar magnet trick with an Exacto knife. I use 1/8" magnets for some WH40K pieces for interchangeable arm weapons.
Nice !
Awesome collaboration!
Thank you :) !!!
This just looks amazing and as im getting into DND finally its so cool
Thank you.... glad to hear yo staring to play!!
Your work as also is stupendous however I was a bit let down, I have been designing interactive dungeon pieces but with using springs, levers, and rubber bands. With your skills I would love to see what you could come up with in making actual physically interactive traps. For instance a simple rubber band could have allowed those amazing crossbow to actually fire.
Some basic ideas are swinging secret doors and pit traps that works on hinges and can be spring loaded or triggered with a pull tab. Separation in the foam can be hidden in the texture. The pit trap needed to be two stories high to actually allow the mini to drop down to another level.
Advanced ideas dealt with magnets which I know you love, lol, hope this inspires you with some new ideas. Far as I know I have not seen a really interactive set piece and I watch them all since when the Godfather Scotty was the only one out here doing it.
Thank you Scotty and thank you John, keep up the great work.
Absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous details and wow the design is outstanding 💕😘💕😘
Thank you Tara, I really appreciate it!
just a tip when working with magnets and hot glue: Neodymium magnets (the cheap ones), if heated above 80 degrees Celsius (176 F), lose their magnetic property. There are different graded Nd magnets that can handle higher temperatures
Great tip. Yes I’m aware of that, the hot glue doesn’t effect these though.
Super amazing video thanks for the amazing work
You got it…. Thank you!
Dude that is fantastic!
Right on Paul... Thank you !
DUDE! That's friggin awesome!
Right on Jacob 👊
Great Build you are a Nice neat crafter. Good for you:) I wish I were neater like this:)
Thanks Grim !
Wow, this really is something else!
Thank you :) !!
Okay this is absolutely amazing
Thank you Colton !!
awesome build
Thank you 🤘
Love your videos, crazy amazing. If you ever run out of ideas you should make an egyption themed series.
Thank you, and an awesome idea! Writing that down :)
Great stuff friend 👏 👍
Thank you !!
I'm interested in that drawer you have for your craft paints!!! Nice!
Thanks Lisa.... it’s made from some angled aluminum.
First time viewer and this was great!
Awesome… glad you liked the video.
Long holiday weekend has me late to the party. Great attention to detail on this build , never disappoint. Good seeing Scotty, so when's the big announcement? (You know the one I mean). Can't think of a better fit!
I figured you were on vacation or some place remote :) Thank you ! Yeah, it was awesome working with Scotty... he's running about a week behind with his video as a bunch of stuff has come up on his end. I'm just as excited as everyone else to see this video.
Awesome sauce 👌
Right on Scott !
Wow, that's 12/10 for effort, 12/10 for genius ideas and about 765.934/10 sadistic... 😂
Right on Horst !!!
Im definitly going to make something like this.
Awesome! Glad the video inspired you.
Did DMScotty post his video? I can’t seem to find it on his channel. Great video, amazing work!
He ran into an issue at work and had to postpone it a few days... it will be out this week. Thank you Sarah :)
Very soon, like John says I had a few issues.
07:28 that overall look when u started to put yellow layer was so awesome "felt very gothic vampire" but overuse of a yellow i think made it worse and as not detailed
Awsome!
Thank you :)
Another excellent idea well executed!
Call the rat Snikkit?
Yes haha... Thanks Mykl.
I just wish we could see his player's reactions when they are faced with the trap.
Priceless :) .....every time!
Good to see you have another channel matt santoro
Haha ... I had to look him up.
very nice
Thank you!!
Nice!!!!
Thank you!
Dude your channel has so much brilliance...
Leave some for the rest of us lmao XD
Seriously, great job
Haha, much appreciated:)
Okay here I sit and want to have a bigger hobby space to recreate your work.
But there are 2 things that bother me with your trap:
First: your player will see what kind of trap it is. Maybe build an encasing for it. Also reuse the design of it for other traps. Like a room that gets shut off at all sides and there comes "water" through the skulls, instead of spikey iron balls.
Or have the skull exhale some kind of "fog" or "gas" that makes it difficult for the players, without killing them right away.
Or combine it with the previous mentioned teleport trap. Once the player steps on a certain field, a related skull will light up, and the player gets teleported to another place in the dungeon.
Or have one of the skullwall sections be a door with enemies hiding in the back. Whatever kind of trap it is, it will be revealed once it has been triggered by removing the encasement. (either to show the tank/crossbows/monsters/nothing)
Second: I am thinking about how to improve the bottom side of the playfield and how to make the "related tile" more exchangeable without replacing the strip every time. (and without damageing the bottom side over time) Maybe a grid from plastic strips where you have tiles with the switch on top of it and a stripe at the end to pull it out safely.
It should prevent the floor section from bending down to far and also help make this useable for much longer.
But that is just what sprung to my mind, thinking about me and sometimes handling my things to clumsy.
All excellent ideas Tristan! When a video sparks inspiration to crate all the things you mentioned it really makes me happy!
Your work is amazing. Is there another channel that you run with your various models in campaign action??
Thank you Me :) Not currently... but you might see some of that action in the future right here on this channel!
Fun build John. A bit too technical for me. Not that I can't follow but it's a bit too much for me to go for that on a trap.
Thanks :). You can always make the trap and just paint some OSL effects behind the steel balls... no electronics needed.
Now imagine if the crossbows were actually able to fire.
Yeah that would be crazy!
Yet another amazing video. Wish XPS foam was easy to get in the EU (Denmark).
How thick is the XPS pieces your using for the floor/walls?
Thank you! Typically I use 1/2" XPS foam for those sorts of things.
OMFG like how cool is this shit!!!! Holy cow!!!!
Right on!! Thanks :)
Another awesome build! I can't seem to find the link for the reed switches.
Thank you Tim :) I added them in the Amazon Links. If you purchase Conwy boards Terrain Tronics sells them with them as well!
@@TabletopWitchCRAFT Great! I ordered the Conwy boards after the last video, already planning the projects.
Hey TWC - Do you find that the Anycubic has a smell to it when printing? I want to get a resin printer but I need to put it in my office, which is a small spare bedroom. The door stays open all the time and there is a ceiling fan, but I was wondering if that is enough ventilation for me to be in there while printing is happening. I didn't see extra ventilation in your room so I thought I'd ask. Keep up the great work!
Hi Troy, a great question. So everyone reacts differently to these odors. I actually have a 550 CFM hood over my printer that's a direct vent out of my studio. I did run it once without the fan and I did notice an odor but it didn't bother me, but I would recommend ventilation. Just using a ceiling fan to push the fumes around without any cracked window might not be a great idea.
Perfect
Thank you James.
You're welcome, I like working on unique things and you did phenomenal.
dont forget to check out the other video beacuse its a fun skaven stuff
Yes, it's very cool!
Not a bad idea, the only drawback is having to put magnets on the base of the minis. Its ok if players are using your minis, but what if I insist on using mine instead?
That's a great question, and I talk about that in the video :) Really simple and I always try to not overcomplicate things. I would just place the appropriate magnet on the end of a 1/4" dowel and use that to navigate the trap or prepare a mini with a magnet in the base for your friends to use while moving though this area.
A “walking stick”!
Cool
Thanks!
What is the foam you use?
XPS
"It's a trap(s)".
Colm is da best.
hey
Hey :)
I love the idea, but so much work for something you use maybe once or twice. I dunno. :/
Use it more than twice :).
This is a good diorama but a totally useless piece for a real game. Not here to offend but to give a honest feedback knowing that you put a lot of work into your projects. I think that you should choose between diorama and playable terrain, not both at the same time.
Everyone has their own opinion I respect that. This isn't a diorama though?
Fantastic! If you allow me a suggestion. Version 2.0 could be built by making the tiles that hide trap changeable.
I love suggestions... that's a cool one !
