I honestly think those doors are too wide as well. I'm just going to have to go with my 0.5" wall spacer idea. Oh well.

That's cool going with spacers, but i feel i must defend the doors since I did spend some time getting them exactly right, calculating my prototype's deviation from digital input and resin shrinkage based upon cast thickness when casting from silicone moulds (-1.14% if I recall correctly). The HQ card door is 28.92mm wide and the resin one is 29.15 mm wide at the widest point of the doors. So that's a 230micron wider dimension, which is only because the edges are rough stone and im measuring from the widest point.

I like the sewer drains, shares in dental stone are going to go up because of you

I'm sure I will pick up a set anyways just to make sure (as they look incredible, and it's not an issue with their appearance) , but I'm still afraid they are too wide. Yes, I could sand the sides down, but that would be a waste, you know?

Thanks. I'm trying to come up with interesting ways to utilize all of the blocks in the molds so I'm not wasting any dental stone.

All of this is now very amusing.

I love watching people work hard on their concepts. Its inspiring.

Are those 16 boards going to be kept apart or are they being glued together in the end?

If they are kept apart, have you examined if they can be swapped around to make alternative maps without breaking rooms apart?

Oh okay. I thought you meant amusing, as in funny to watch failing lol.

They are going to be kept separate for storage purposes. I plan to build a foot locker/chest to keep all the pieces in, much like this (But larger to accommodate the massive amount of wall sections):

Quick question for anyone who might know. Do you know what miniatures that are used in the Damien Thevein board? I don't see anything on his blog that says where he got them.

p.s. also snuck in some gluing tonight. Here's one of my 'blocked path' pieces:

Ask Ampersand about that barbarian. The wizard and dwarf are both hard to find GW. I am pretty sure most of those other are too.

I've spent the last hour searching through GW and others for replacement figures. Definitely some nice choices out there. Here are my potential replacements:
