3D Printed Catan
A custom Settlers of Catan board, designed and printed in color
January at MIT is IAP (Independent Activities Period), a time to try new things. For IAP 2024, Alayah Hines and I explored low-temperature metal casting with a custom Settlers of Catan board: design every piece in Fusion 360, 3D print it, make a silicone mold, and cast it in metal.
The metal casting is a story for another time. In the meantime we had access to a few multi-color Bambu X1 Carbon printers, so we printed the board in color.
