How to make a board-game token divider with vibe CAD
Fit a removable token divider inside an existing game box using the actual component groups, bag sizes and lid clearance.
Concept illustration. Customize the prompt and upload your CAD.
An organizer for an existing game box, not a sealed travel insert or a child-safety product.
01 / START WITH THE REAL OBJECT
Measure before you prompt.
- Measure the box interior at the floor and near the opening, including any taper.
- Measure token groups, card packs and bags in their intended stored arrangement.
- Record usable height beneath the closed lid and any board stored above the insert.
- Choose finger-access gaps with a cardboard compartment mockup.
State units. If a dimension is missing, have your agent ask for it.
02 / GIVE YOUR AGENT A CLEAR BRIEF
Copy this into your CAD conversation.
Use Claude or another agent with a CAD tool such as OpenSCAD, CadQuery or your existing modeler. Fill in your measurements and keep the source editable.
Build a game-box divider with box_floor_width, box_floor_depth, opening_width, usable_height, compartment_sizes and outer_gap. Use removable open compartments without altering the box. Ask for component groups and the complete lid stack. Do not assume the game’s published box dimensions describe its interior.03 / INSPECT AS YOU BUILD
Model it in deliberate steps.
Recreate the storage stack
Sketch the box floor, component layer and any board or booklet above it. Reserve vertical space for every layer before sizing divider walls.
Allocate component groups
Place tokens and card packs in separate measured compartments. Keep frequently used groups near the accessible edge and allow removal of existing bags if they are retained.
Add pickup recesses
Lower selected wall sections for fingers and round their transitions. Keep enough continuous wall between groups to match the intended storage layout.
04 / VALIDATE THE FIRST PROTOTYPE
Check the fit and intended use.
- Use a cardboard mockup inside the actual box and confirm the lid closes without pressing on the insert.
- Inspect the smallest token compartment for unintended openings after wall and corner features are combined.
- Verify exported outer dimensions and plan a perimeter-fit sample before fabricating the full divider.
Material
PLA or PETG may be explored for the divider.
