@@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!
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
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.
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.
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
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!
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. 🤔
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!
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.
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!
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.
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!!
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
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.
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
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.
why is this channel so underrated? pro tier editing and skills yall need more subs. edit - oh, this is the only vid.. rip yall should totally do more! i'd love to watch stuff like this more often :)
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!
Only 247 subscribers...while I watched video I think you have at least more than 100k subs. That's crazy! Keep doing I want you guys to get to 100k subs! P.S. Thank you youtube recommendation for this video! ;)
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!
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.
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 ;)
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!
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.).
Great video! Do you have an affiliated link for the magnetic balls? the one in the description seems to be a dead link. I'd love for you to get something so we keep getting videos like this
I kinda like the wooden pieces to be honest. I don’t know, I just like the simplicity of the roads and buildings. I will say that the pieces in game of thrones catan are amazing though, so I don’t hate detail, just as long as the detail is necessary to make a game look nice, and the base Catan game is one of those games that doesn’t.
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.

@@Anudorini-Talah you can still shuffle them though

Really awesome! Not just the final result, but the production along showing the procedure makes it very compelling.

Coolest 3D printing project I've ever seen in 10+ years of 3D printing! Great job guys
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!
i'd like to thank the algorithm for bringing me to an incredible channel making something i've always wanted to make
Whoa! This really turned out cool fellas! Well done 👍 😊
All games with tile building should have magnets built in. Amazing job guys!
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. 🤔
4:25 oh, look, it's the game of thrones opening
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!
One of those things I didn’t know I needed, and now cannot live without
Brilliant! I would have seen more close-ups of the water pieces though, they could be the best in the bunch!
awesome custom job! Id pay for a custom Catan board like this so cool
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.

whoaaaaw.. thats just incredible, fantastic job guys, I want this so badly... for me and to gift to all my catan addicted friends...
i made a 5 player one for someone . it was fun . and they enjoyed painting all the parts.
This is great! I'm going to hand craft one in porcelain including magnets this month. What an inspiring design.
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
can't wait to see more of your projects, enjoy your time!
excellent makes the gameplay more engaging
I am currently painting a set of terraforming mars tiles. This will have to be my next 3d printing project for a board game.
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.
Such a cool project! Thanks for sharing the process and experiences 🤝

Man what happened this was an amazing video I was so exited to see more
This is so good
Great job on the project. I might just have to do this one day as well.
Nice work guys - this looks great. Now I just need to convince my fiends to play table top games
hicieron el juego como debió ser comercializado!! es lo mas hermoso que he visto en mi vida
👏👏👏👏 great! Just wow!!! Keep the good work. I wish to make something like this but I don’t even have a 3D printer :(

Doing this with catan: seafarers would be epic

well done guys, awesome ! but i hope to know very soon where are you now? after 3 years and just 2 videos
Id like to get ahold of the stl for the paint shield you guys made. That is nice
This is beautiful!! keep on making!!
This thing should be in. Board Game museum
This is amazing! Excellent job!
This is sweeet!! Might need to pick one of these up
went out all with production here
Great job!! Very impressed.
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

Amazing production quality of the video. How come you don't have more subs??! :-)
The best 3D Catan board I’ve seen yet 👍🏼
How many of them have you seen???
why is this channel so underrated? pro tier editing and skills yall need more subs.
edit - oh, this is the only vid.. rip
yall should totally do more! i'd love to watch stuff like this more often :)
Awww what happened? Where did you guys go? 😢 great video
Awesome!
More like EPIC!
´See, there is nothing wrong with having a little hex as a friend.´ And now dear boardgamefriendlyfolks, for some... Titanium White...
Outstanding job.
I would love to see more content from you. What happened it seems as if you had plans for more?
Holy guacamole.... Using round magnets in cavities so they can rotate freely.... That solves a giant problem i Had with a project
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!
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.
Only 247 subscribers...while I watched video I think you have at least more than 100k subs. That's crazy! Keep doing I want you guys to get to 100k subs! P.S. Thank you youtube recommendation for this video! ;)
Thank you! We have more videos in the works!
Well, that settles it! Do it!
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?
Awesome! Very awesome! Very, very, awesome, etc...
Great video! I would love to see more content in the future :)
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.

It’s magnetic?!? That got me. Take my money. Lol
Amazing vid! Do you have a file for the print shields?
insane! great stuff :D
I noticed the saguaro of the desert pieces are incredibly tiny. Where as the tiles in the video are huge.
The files I downloaded from the Patreon have no desert modifications.
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.
Só não é possível embaralhar as cartas. No mais, é simplesmente maravilhoso.
How to shuffle the landscapes at the beginning of a round tho. : / taking away the fun in the game.
Que hermoso trabajo, un saludo desde Uruguay . Nosotros con mis amigos hicimos uno pero de carton , te mando un abrazo y saludos a todos
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! :)
Amazing and just after I threw $340 for the new 3D anniversary edition
This is pretty dang sweet. What kind of printer do you have?
This is really nice. I only see one drawback, if you want to play adhoc with extensions.
Fun fact some versions of catan don’t have those wooden play pieces but instead tiny plastic sculpts
Did you also make intersection pieces?
I really like the dragon/robber
That's epic. I'm 33 years old and don't use "epic" much. But this is epic.
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.
Can I purchase a finished product from you guys?!! This looks amazing!
when you make your first million don't forget your uncle😂 tony lol

the houses and roads are so cool looking, well the whole board is but i really dig the houses and roads
Great video! Do you have an affiliated link for the magnetic balls? the one in the description seems to be a dead link. I'd love for you to get something so we keep getting videos like this
Just Great!!
Hey, awesome project. And it's great so the the whole provess! Good quality video
Would love this, but what is the approx price to print it, with magnets inside?
I kinda like the wooden pieces to be honest. I don’t know, I just like the simplicity of the roads and buildings. I will say that the pieces in game of thrones catan are amazing though, so I don’t hate detail, just as long as the detail is necessary to make a game look nice, and the base Catan game is one of those games that doesn’t.
Incredible work! Can i find all the files, including the modified dragon and the paint protectors in your patreon site?
Every piece we made is there!
Great! waiting for more videos from you guys 🤩
Awesome video!
