Using an XCarve machine and a 3-D printer, you can make an exceptional version of Crokinole!

Supplies

3-D Printer, XCarve, Filament, Task Board, Corrugated Plastic (Yard Sign), Strong Glue

Creating the Board

  1. Export the CAD model of the game board as a DXF. file 
  2. Input the DXF. file into RDWorks
  3. Fix depth setting (All parts being carved go through the board, make sure the depth of the cut goes through your material completely)
  4. Start the carve with the RDworks on the 24x40 Omtech laser

Creating the Pegs

  1. Export the CAD model of the pegs as a STL. file
  2. Input the STL. file into Prusa Slicer Software
  3. Arrange the pegs
  4. Add brim and lowest infil to maximize bounciness
  5. Slice the model
  6. Export the file as a G.code
  7. Import the G-Code to your 3d printer
  8. Print

Creating the Discs

  1. Export the CAD model of the discs as a STL file
  2. Input the STL file into Prusa Slicer
  3. Arrange 12 discs with high infil - around 50%
  4. Slice the model
  5. Export the G-code
  6. Start the print on your 3d printer with one color filament
  7. Repeat with another color filament

Creating the Bumper

  1. Find a material that is sturdy enough to support the material of the game board, we used corrugated plastic (must be of size, 20 in diameter)
  2. Using the 24x40 Omtech, cut a circle that is larger in diameter than the game board in order to fit the discs
  3. Take task board and cut two strips, total length should equal circumference of the circle made in the two steps above(desired height)

  1. Using strong glue, center the game board on the circle of corrugated plastic and glue it down
  2. Using your task board and strong glue, bend and glue the board on the outer edge of the corrugated plastic disc 
  3. Once dry, glue your eight pegs down into the eight small holes
