FAQs

real questions from buyers
Should I buy the terrain as files or printed?

Every folding piece is one listing with two options. Choose STL files if you have a printer — it is an instant download with the print-in-place walls, the test coupon, the print settings and the piece's full-footprint base plate, and you snip the hinge pin from any 1.75 mm spool. Choose Printed & shipped and we print it in Melbourne, fit the pins, check the fold and post it to you flat. The Gothic Ruins folding set has its full release at the end of 2026 and single pieces are 30% off until then.

Does it really fold, or does it come apart?

It folds. The walls print as ONE print-in-place object with the hinges already made — nothing is glued and nothing is assembled. A snipped length of 1.75 mm filament through each hinge column is the only pin, and pulling the corner pins lets the halves fold flat.

How much shelf space does folding actually save?

Measured on our own prints: the large ruin goes from 265 × 137 × 122 mm deployed to 262 × 31 × 122 mm folded — 77% less storage volume. The bell tower folds to a 37 mm slab, 29% less volume, and flat pieces stack where a hollow box cannot.

Do I need supports, glue or hardware?

None of the three. Walls print standing exactly as placed at 0.2 mm layers with no supports, floors and base plates print flat, and the hinge pin is a piece of your own 1.75 mm filament. No hardware is supplied with a digital download; the printed version arrives with its pins already fitted.

Will it fit my tournament board?

Every piece is compatible with the 11th edition tournament layout, and the STL pack includes the matching full-footprint base plate so the piece stands on its complete measured footprint.

Is this terrain OpenLOCK compatible?

The folding Gothic Ruins pieces on this page stand on their own full-footprint base plates and are not an OpenLOCK system. Our Gothic Ruins Terrain Pack — 15 weathered tiles plus 8 clean-finish variants as STL files — is OpenLOCK compatible and clips to the OpenLOCK connector system; it is sold on the STL Packs page.

Do you sell gothic ruins terrain STL files?

Yes. Every folding piece here has an STL files option — an instant download with the print-in-place walls, print settings, a test coupon and the matching base plate — and the OpenLOCK-compatible Gothic Ruins Terrain Pack tile set is on the STL Packs page. Both are a personal-use licence.

Can I buy 3D printed terrain in Australia already printed?

Yes — choose Printed & shipped on any folding piece and we 3D print it in Melbourne at 0.2 mm layers with no supports, fit the hinge pins, check the fold and post it to you folded flat, Australia-wide.
