3D model description

Fancy organizers for Ark Nova board game. This is my version 2 that comes with decorative and more comfortable containers. My simpler version - 1 is available here for free.

The set contains: Enclosure organizer, Unique Building organizer, Cash organizer with lid, Player's component organizer with lid (4 types), Card tray and Association organizer.

  1. ENCLOSURE ORGANIZER: All types of Enclosure and Kiosk/Pavilon tiles are organized here. It's really comfortable.
  2. UNIQUE BUILDING ORGANIZER: A tray for all Unique Buildings. They are organized to cover as small space as possible and still be easy to pick up during the play. Shapes of tiles are elevated to facilitate item draw. Drawings of animals/ places are cutout, so it's easy to find the right place for each tile. (It was the first organizer that I wanted to design for this game as searching for these tiles in a messy pile was very annoying.)
  3. CASH ORGANIZER: Each type of money tokens is kept in separate section. Rounded bottom facilitates item draw. There are also comfortable sections for: X, x2, Venom and Constriction tokens. A sliding lid protects items from falling out during the storage. A giant squid certainly cannot be kept in the zoo, but it looks nice on the cover and it is related to the game theme ;)
  4. PLAYER'S COMPONENT ORGANIZER: All player's components are kept here in dedicated sections: workers, cubes and counters. Action cars are kept on the shelf above cubes and counters. A decorated sliding lid prevents items from falling out during the storage. There are 4 sketches of animals: 2 flamingos, a panther, a cobra and fish, so each player can have a different container.
  5. CARD TRAY: There are a lot of cards in this game. It wasn't easy to fit them nicely in the box. To keep them all together, the back wall of the container has very steep slope. There are 3 sections, for: Zoo, Final Scoring and Base Conservation Project cards. The biggest section is for Zoo cards. There are serrations on the bottom to prevent cards from sliding down. This container can be placed horizontally (especially during the storage). But it can also be put vertically - thus it can serve as a card tray. However it's quite high then, so it can obscure the view of the main game board. You can decide to keep it aside (or don't use it in this position at all). Please note, that it is designed for cards without sleeves.
  6. ASSOCIATION ORGANIZER: It is an organizer for: Partner zoos, Universities and Bonus tiles. Each type of tiles is kept in separate section. Distances between sections facilitate item draw (enough space for thick fingers ;)). Its length is correlated with Enclosure organizer as it is kept above it during the storage.

All organizers fit the game box very well, provide quick game setup and comfort during the play. However it's not an insert.

OPTIONAL VERSION V.3: If you want covers for Enclosure and Association organizers you can choose to print V.3 Standard Enclosure organizer, V.3 Special Enclosure organizer and V.3 Association organizer instead of Enclosure organizer and Association organizer from the main .zip file. Their models are provided in the ArkNova_V.3_EnclusresAssociationsWithLids_JKa.zip file. These 3 organizers (instead of 2) fit the game box in the same location, just a little bit tighter.

Here are photos of these optional organizers in higher resolution:

3D printing settings

All organizers were 3Dprinted on Prusa MK3/ MK4:
- in PLA (F3D Gold pearl),
- No support is needed,
- Infill 10% rectilinear.
Note1: I use slightly changed default Print settings "0.15mm SPEED MK3" in PrusaSlicer.
Note2: Monotonic top fill increase lid's quality. I set it also for Unique Building organizer and Association organizer.
Note3: Sometimes I use 0.2 mm layer height to speed up the print.
