Upgrade Your Shelf: Custom 3D Printed Accessories for Your Favourite Games

At All Crafted Creations (ACC), we believe that your games should be as enjoyable to handle as they are to play. Whether you’re enhancing your Gloomhaven storage setup with a fully modular organiser or upgrading your Catan board with beautiful, custom resource trays, 3D printing gives players the power to personalise and perfect every aspect of their tabletop collection. It’s creativity, craftsmanship, and practicality—all layered with purpose.

Why Upgrade with 3D Printed Accessories?

Every tabletop fan knows the struggle of managing bits and pieces — endless tokens, cards that warp in the box, and that jumble of components sliding around between sessions. Custom 3D printed accessories eliminate that chaos. Inserts, organisers, and trays can be tailored to fit every card, token, tile, and miniature perfectly, ensuring everything stays in its proper place. This not only makes setup and cleanup dramatically easier but also adds a professional polish to your entire collection.

Beyond practicality, these accessories enhance how your game feels. Swapping out plastic baggies for a themed organiser adds immersion and style. Imagine how a sleek, sci-fi insert can amplify the look of a futuristic deck builder, or how a dungeon-crawling adventure feels when resting on textured fantasy trays designed to match its world. 3D printed components aren’t just about storage — they’re an extension of the narrative that deepens player engagement every time the box opens.

Popular Add-ons Players Love

1. Game Trays & Organisers

Nothing streamlines setup like a game tray designed for efficiency. Tailored inserts and organisers keep every component secure and easy to access. They slip seamlessly back into the box between games, preserving condition and order. For games with hundreds of pieces, like Terraforming Mars or Ark Nova, custom storage can cut setup time from 20 minutes to just a few. Players appreciate not only the time saved but also the sense of calm and focus that a well-structured play area brings.

2. Card Holders & Resource Racks

For strategy-heavy titles, visibility and order matter. 3D printed card holders keep decks neatly aligned and hands free, while resource racks display tokens and currency beautifully across the table. Imagine an elegantly tiered rack designed to showcase your resource cubes in Wingspan or an angled card stand for your Dominion setup. These designs improve accessibility while protecting cards from wear — a small upgrade with a big impact on longevity and gameplay comfort.

3. Dice Towers & Rolling Trays

Make every roll an event. 3D printed dice towers combine aesthetic and function, guiding rolls smoothly while keeping dice from flying off the table. Rolling trays pair perfectly, providing cushioning and noise reduction during intense battles. With the flexibility of 3D printing, these pieces can match your game’s world — gothic spires for dark fantasy adventures, metallic frameworks for sci-fi combat, or engraved motifs for historical epics. Every design becomes a statement piece on your tabletop.

Matching Design to Your Game’s Visual Theme

One of the greatest strengths of 3D printing lies in customisation. Accessories don’t need to be one-size-fits-all; they can be sculpted to align perfectly with your game’s narrative and aesthetic. At All Crafted Creations, our designers specialise in translating a game’s art direction into physical form. Want runic engravings and stone textures for a fantasy world? Sleek geometric lines and metallic accents for a sci-fi setting? We can bring those visual elements to life through tailored surface patterns and thematic detailing.

Our team employs **high-quality FDM printing technology**, which ensures every piece is robust enough to withstand countless game nights while retaining artistic precision. Layer resolution, filament choice, and finishing techniques all contribute to creating accessories that feel as premium as the games they accompany. The result: functional art that complements both your collector’s shelf and your playtable.

The Right Material Finish: Looks Meet Practicality

Just as every game has its own theme, each accessory benefits from a considered choice of filament and finish. Material selection determines not only appearance but also touch and usability. For minimalist organisers, matte PLA gives a smooth, professional look. For statement pieces like dice towers or token bowls, silk or metallic filaments can add reflective highlights that catch the eye.

Durability also plays a role. PLA+ or PETG filaments offer extra strength for items that endure frequent handling. Colour palettes can align with your favourite game’s design — deep mahogany tones for historical settings, crystal blues and silvers for sci-fi, or earthy hues for nature-themed titles. Experienced makers at ACC can help you find the perfect balance between form and function, ensuring your accessories remain beautiful and reliable long after their first use.

From Community Ideas to Printed Reality

The tabletop gaming community thrives on creativity and collaboration. Over the years, fan-made designs have revolutionised how players interact with their favourite titles. At All Crafted Creations, we take inspiration from that spirit of innovation, helping gamers transform ideas into tangible accessories that enhance both functionality and flair.

Recent community-led projects include:

• A modular organiser set for Wingspan, echoing the serene tones and natural palette of its artwork while reducing setup time dramatically.

• A fantasy-inspired token tray for Scythe, featuring engraved faction sigils that enrich its strategic atmosphere.

• A compact, foldable travel insert for Carcassonne, designed for lightweight portability without sacrificing visual appeal.

Each of these accessories started as a simple idea—a sketch, a rough print, or a shared community file—and became a polished, production-ready enhancement. We assist with model refinement, material testing, and surface finishing so players can confidently add custom-made excellence to their collections. It’s about more than printing plastic—it’s about turning passion into product.
