Birch, TexasJoined Thu Feb 01 2018I think the Catan posts are plentiful enough to merit their own category at this point…nevertheless, here is one more.
The desert, numbers, and edge pieces are PG basswood; the rest were cut from colored birch from The Wood Gallery. The “robber” is PG walnut sandwiched in PG basswood.
I did some fiddling with the files, so most of the pieces aren’t engraved/etched exactly as laid out in the original Glowforge version.
The towns, settlements, and roads are cut from PG acrylic. Towns and settlements are 3 layers welded together, and the roads have black acrylic paint rubbed into the scorelines.
The design for the edge pieces was purchased from EttuArtem on Etsy. I painted them using acrylic paints.
I’m looking forward to trying it out once the 60th anniversary festivities are over with.
Edit: Here’s the post containing the files for the parts I designed: Catan Parts
