Harry Potter: Hogwarts Battle - 3D Printed Insert

last updated November 22nd, 2024 — created January 29th, 2024

For each insert we create, we have a few standard design goals:

  • Reduce setup time as much as possible
  • Have separate component trays for "setup components" and "gameplay components"
  • Allow for vertical box storage without components crushing each other
  • Fit sleeved cards

This insert is designed to house the base game and both expansions in the base game box. Setup is quick with several play trays that go straight from box to table. Setup cards have little paper divider sleeves to make it easy to pull the section and find any specific cards that you may need for each game. Unlabeled cards sections are designed to be played directly out of their trays and should fit in their designated areas on the game board.

Other Insert Projects
NEWStarCraft: The Board Game
The highlight of this insert is the faction towers. Each faction gets its own tower with reference info on shields for some room to strategize.
Twilight Imperium Fourth Edition
This insert is designed for optimal setup speed. It has a few setup trays to pull components from, and then all play trays go straight from box to table.
Star Wars: Rebellion
This is most certainly our best insert ever. It has a lot of cool features that we'd never be able to do with foam-core, like sets of miniatures drawers.
Runebound Second Edition
This design covers every expansion, limits the boxes needed to play, and features boxes for Adventure Variants and Character Decks.
World of WarCraft: The Board Game
This is our biggest insert ever. There are two large sets of drawers to hold the minis and everything else fits in the base game box.
DungeonQuest Revised Edition
This insert is one of the first that we did with multiple trays. It has card drawers for each mini-deck as well as small trays for all tokens.
Wiz-War
For this game we decided to store the base game and both expansions in one box with an overflowing insert (the lid doesn't fit on all the way).
Drakon
The best part about this one is the dungeon tile stacks bin. It makes setup much, much swifter.
Enigma
This was the first insert we ever made. If we ever remake this it will be very different. But it was certainly a useful learning experience.
Artisans of Splendent Vale
This mini-insert for the small components tuck box keeps numbered meeples ordered and ready for action!
D&D Adventure Board Games
We created a box to store all the heroes so we'd be able to easily select any hero from any of the sets no matter which game we pulled off the shelf to play.
World of WarCraft: The Adventure Game
We designed custom faction boxes for the character decks and tokens. We also made draw bins for challenge decks, and a neat drawer bin for discovery tokens.
Runebound Third Edition
This design covers every expansion, has tokens sorted for convenience, and features boxes for each scenario.
Risk: Star Wars Black Edition
This was our first crack at making a 3D printed insert. It features rounded edges for easy component scooping and a draw deck space for each player.
Sanctum
The best part of this insert is how fast it makes the hero skills table setup. 5 seconds, no joke.
Chess
We got a gorgeous new fossil stone chess set, but it came in a decrepit green box, so we made our own.
Chaostle
We kept the original plastic insert in the base game box and built this insert for the Melee Expansion box.
Tyrants of the Underdark
This insert fits the first edition box. It has player trays for the houses and organizes the cards (including the expansion decks) to make setup a breeze.
