Watch the gap

Masterwork Tools post Watch the gap from patreon

This release partially fulfills a Patron request, which was to make adapters that let you use the dungeon-stone stairs with wall-on-tile sets. Depending on how you’re laying out your map, a staircase next to a wall could leave a gap in the wall.  This set provides wall-on-tile stairs (and risers) with adapters that wil...

  • S Walls (+low)

  • S Arched Windows

Learning to adapt

Masterwork Tools post Learning to adapt from patreon

This month’s releases aren’t sexy, but they’re necessary. I focused on making s-system compatible with other sets, and providing a facelift to the current dungeon-stone standards.  Next month I’ll get rolling on adding new tiles for s.

This set provides adapters for connecting s-system to the other two syst...

May 2023 Vote

Masterwork Tools post May 2023 Vote from patreon

Dungeon Stone Curved Stairs 6x is done, so this month we are moving on to the next vote getter - filling out the S-Series for dungeon stone.  Vote is now for the next set post S-Series.  I expect S-Series to be 3-4 months, depending on how many other releases I pepper in between S releases.

Stick to it!

Masterwork Tools post Stick to it! from patreon

This project was inspired by, and contributed to by one of the patrons.  Nirzhuk suggested this idea, and also contributed initial designs, and a number of the wall hangings.  Thank you Nirzhuk!

These walls can hold a 5x3 (or 5x2) mm magnet.  This lets you attach a number of wall hangings, buttons, shelve...

It’s hip to be square

Masterwork Tools post It’s hip to be square from patreon

These risers let you turn rounded staircases into squares, giving you more options in your multilevel stone design.

This is the last release for the 6x dungeon stone stairs.  I'm really excited about this set because it lets you really see how the other parts all come together to create some great terrain.  Th...

Watch your step

Masterwork Tools post Watch your step from patreon

Watch all the steps, because this set creates a lot of them.   These tiles will help you create a dramatic boss lair, amphitheater, stadium, gladiator arena and more.

This is the second to last of the dungeon stone 6x curved stairs.  Next set will demonstrate some of the awesome things you can do with al...

Single Piece Wall on Tile

Some people have been looking for merged prints for wall on tile. That they have a wall and a floor confuses people, as they think it's Separate Wall.

There are a lot of wall + floor size combinations for wall tiles.  For corner tiles there's an explosion of possible combinations.  Arrow Slit on the right, Por...

April Vote

Masterwork Tools post April Vote from patreon

In april we should see the last release for dungeon stone 6x curved stairs, so this will decide where we go next.  I'm still going to be streaming out dungeon stone misc releases as the remaining releases there are all larger projects, so I'll keep dedicating a release per month to that until I've got them all.

Arcane Circles (Set 2)

Masterwork Tools post Arcane Circles (Set 2) from patreon

Sometimes a gamer just needs some circles full of magical magicalness. When that day comes, I'm your dude.

Maybe your players have run across a temple to Baphomet. Maybe they're having a unicorn BBQ. Maybe a thousand monkeys with a thousand sticks in the mud accidentally opened a portal to hell. I won't judge.

Dungeon Stone Infinity Hallway

Masterwork Tools post Dungeon Stone Infinity Hallway from patreon

To infinity -- and beyond! -- in your OpenForge dungeon.

This infinity hallway can be used for magical shenanigans, or as a simple way to indicate that a hallway goes on for a long time. If infinity is more than you need, we've included files for building just the hallway.

This project has been in the works for ...

6x Radial Curved Stairs

Masterwork Tools post 6x Radial Curved Stairs from patreon

These stairs form a circle. They go up and down, creating obvious OSHA hazards. Round and round. Like you would expect from a circle. 360 degrees, forever.

Damnit, just download the files.

Monument Hobbies/Pro Acryl

Masterwork Tools post Monument Hobbies/Pro Acryl from patreon

Over the past year, I've become pretty enamored of Pro-Acryl paints.  They've become my primary paint for miniatures, and increasingly I've been using them for details or really anything other than the main base coat for my terrain/tiles.

So I reached out to them and asked if there was a way to get a discount for ...

Voting

Masterwork Tools post Voting from patreon

With the USB project, we needed to focus on that, and kinda missed doing the vote.  That being said, 6x curved stairs had a commanding lead, so we started that last month.  We'll continue to produce some dungeon stone misc projects, but the remaining ones are all larger projects, so those will filter out once a mont...

6X CURVED ANGULAR STAIRS

Masterwork Tools post 6X CURVED ANGULAR STAIRS from patreon

This set includes a variation on the 6x curved stairs – angular stairs available in 4x (45 degrees) and 2x (22.5 degrees) (at 3 heights). I've attached all the 2x and 4x curved risers for convenience.

RISE ABOVE WITH 6X CURVED RISERS

Masterwork Tools post RISE ABOVE WITH 6X CURVED RISERS from patreon

Like Obi-Wan Kenobi, you too can have the high ground with 6x (radius) curved stairs in 4 different heights, with versions 1x (11.25 degrees), 2x (22.5 degrees) and 4x (45 degrees) around.

I updated older files to add 1x-wide risers so you can rotate the set exactly one square, giving you more precise control of your ...

PHONE-POWERED PORTAL: MAGIC OR SCIENCE?

Masterwork Tools post PHONE-POWERED PORTAL: MAGIC OR SCIENCE? from patreon

3D-printing is great, but 5D-printing is better. You already use your phone for driving directions, watching videos and arguing with strangers. Now use it to open a portal to another dimension.

This design is big enough to hold most phones. I tested it with my ginormous Pixel 6, and it fits with the case. You might need...

60 degree walls

Masterwork Tools post 60 degree walls from patreon

First up for this month, we have 60 degree walls.  Like the floors, these line up with the square tiles, because they are exactly 2, 3, 4 inches per side.  They can be used for creating y intersection, and hex (or portions of a hex) shaped room.  This gives the first and most critical tile for this room shape. ...

Last release is cleaning up a few more things as we get ready to make the 2022 OpenForge zip files and sd cards.

This last release has a number of updates.

Dungeon Stone Torch Pillars

Pillars get the torch treatment!  The photos are only showing one of the 5 versions of torches on the pillars.  Each pillar has the option of 1, 2 (L), 2 (either side), T and all four sides.

There are SO many variations I could make for this, so I decided to go with the pillars that are the same height as most...

December Vote

Masterwork Tools post December Vote from patreon

We're done with cut stone basics, and are backfilled on Dungeon Stone.  Next set is Dungeon Stone Misc, which is a bunch of fun tiles, and should probably last for the next 2-3 months, so now it's time to start voting for the next set.  I'll keep it open to next monday.

I'm trying to make sure there are no missing components, and this month is a bit of cleanup on that front.  The oth...
