Movement trays for all!

Good evening guys,

We totally forgot to showcase the Modular Dwarf Movement Tray that will be available this September 2022 Release along with the rest of the miniatures, so super quick post today just to show how it will look!

We wanted to make a resin modular movement tray but due to the size of the standard resin printers, we had to find a way to make it small but with big possibilites. 

After a few iterations we decided to create one "pre-assembled" movement tray for five 20x20mm square bases in a row split in two pieces: front and middle section, that you can print as many time as you want to form the movement tray. 

The second option is the full modular pieces that you can combine together to create any movement tray you may need for your units, like the second example of the preview images. In the third image you can see all the pieces that will be available to download. 

You can obtain the rest of the pieces, like the back section to "close" the movement tray, by simply using the mirror option in your slicer. 

The holes in the bases and in the sides of the decorative corners are designed for a 5x2mm round magnet.

Hope you like it guys, we read you as always! ❤️

Sorry to ask but is there a slight chance for these trays to be also made available for a base size of 25 x 25 mm for upcoming Omd World?

Did you experience any warping? I used to have alot of trouble with 3D printed moving trays.

H
Highlands Miniatures · September 4, 2022

You can probably experience some warping with the pre-assembled movement tray, but if you choose the full modular movement tray, each piece has almost the same size as a normal 20x20mm square base, so there isn't much room for warping :)

Oh by the ancestors! I was just about to search for trays, this makes me so happy! :D

H
Highlands Miniatures · September 3, 2022

Thank you Mikkel! If the modular design works, we will create resin-friendly custom decorative movement trays for all our armies! :)

Alberto Lion · September 3, 2022

Me gusta mucho,ojalá hagáis algo así con más ejércitos!

H
Highlands Miniatures · September 3, 2022

Muchas gracias Alberto! Si el sistema modular funciona correctamente, nos gustaria hacer bandejas de movimiento decorativas de resina para todos nuestros ejercitos!

Morten Strårup · September 3, 2022

They look great. I would prefer plain ones to style myself though. Have you added a couple of millimetres to help with miniature placing?

H
Highlands Miniatures · September 3, 2022

Hi Morten! Yes, each square section is slightly bigger than 20x20mm, around 20,5mm, so it leaves some space. For example, the five miniature row has a total length over 102mm. :)

Kevin Walker · September 3, 2022

Awesome! Thanks for the great design with holes included for magnets.

H
Highlands Miniatures · September 3, 2022

Glad you like it Kevin! We hope people find it useful!

Megabiv · September 3, 2022

Will we be seeing 25x25mm trays also?

K
Kevin Walker · September 3, 2022

If there is not one, a scaling to fit is not too difficult unless supports for the type of printing desired is needed.

Kacper Szczytowski · September 3, 2022

What are the diamateres? Outside ones. In mm would be best :)

Thank you Thannak! We would love to know the input from the community about this modular system, if it is useful or not in the table!
