Replacing missing scrabble tile holders

[mcdanlj (Michael K Johnson)]

My family is, inexplicably, down to one of the four original tile stands in the set. I assume that this most likely has something to do with kids having played scrabble at some point or another. None of the stands I found on yeggi follow the pattern of the remaining stand in our set, but I wanted the classic.

FreeCAD and a 3D printer to the rescue!

I think I need to print each one in a different color.

Looks good! I’m sitting here trying to figure out if there’s some sort of hidden message in the tiles in the picture…

Completely random. As it should be.

Everybody gets to pick a color to play from!

Yes, six is too many players for a normal scrabble game. Choice is good.
