Yo! I like to play different types of ttrpgs and I needed a DM screen which I could “reskin” to the vibe. The solution was, the king of all matrerials - C O R K. This revolutionary solution allows you to attach any kind of printed eye noize to the screen, finaly distracting your players from your lackluster improv skills.
But what about adhesive putty and a regular DM screen? Shut it!
💄 materials 💅
To build this DM screen you will need:
- 5mm cork sheet
- m3 8mm bolts (10mm should also be good) and hex nuts
- 6x3mm magnets
- some sort of glue (preferably spray, just makes things easier)
As for fillament, you can go with pretty much any solid material. I've printed mine with PLA, but I would recommend you going with PETG if you had a choice.
💋 printing 👄
For the full screen you will need to print:
- Backplate x3
- CenterScreen_FrameLeft
- CenterScreen_FrameRight
- SideScreen_FrameLeft x2
- SideScreen_FrameRight x2
- ConnectingPeg x4
- ConnectingPegNoMagnet x4 (optional, print this if you do not have mons for the magnets)
(I am not sure that you need to print specifically left and right pairs. They should be the same, but I could care less to check)
Word of caution - the design, as all of my designs, is made with little to no care for other people's ability to print them. General tolerance for all connecting pieces is either non-existant or is 0.2mm. I highly recommend cutting out one of the frames, printing a test piece, checking how the magnets fit and scaling the whole print a few precent decimals up.
As for printing frames, I have printed them vertically on one of the sides. Which of course caused one of the frames to snap during assembly (aka you see this - [ L ] - when the print is finished). Would defo recommend printing them vertically corner up (yes, yes, here is the demonstration - [ Λ ] ).
🥴 assembly 💖
Should be pretty straightforward - glue the cork sheet to back plate, insert into the frame, bolt the frame, glue the magnets.
The only thing to look out for is the order. First assemble one of the side panels. Then do the middle one, but do not bolt it tight. Connect completed side frame with the middle one by snapping the side's tabs into the middle's slots. Once they are securely connected, bolt the middle frame. Repeat for the last frame.
And now you should have a cork DM screen, congrats! It should be able to snap together and fit compactely on a shelf. As for where to store the pegs, I have no idea. I recommend picking up a sewing hobby to make a little baggy for them.
If you actually do print this, please post pics 📷. I need more ideas that I could steal!
