I've published this on Thingiverse despite it being a work in progress that I'm not sure I'll ever come back to, just in case someone wants to finish it or finds the parts useful !
It was designed for a key encounter in our D&D campaign, but although it looked spectacular, the working parts didn't do quite what I hoped, and the campaign has moved on.
The story was that the party were working their way down through a mine in one side of a huge underground crevasse. At the bottom, they found the "Big Bad", who was holding the miners captive. They were in a semi-circular cell, suspended on hooked poles over a deep abyss, and if the party just tried to rush the Big Bad, he'd turn the drum a place and the prisoners would slide off the poles into oblivion.
Unfortunately, although the cell hung dramatically over the abyss (the table edge), when I turned the drum, the hooked poles didn't drop enough for the prisoners to slide off onto the floor.... the BBEG was most disappointed !
Parts included are;
Curved Cell Wall - four of these could make a nice circular cell. They're also a bit of a stringing test for your printer !
The tower base into which the rotating drum and hook poles fit
The hook pole
The rotating drum base (two versions, one with a wide slot, the other narrow)
A flat rotating drum top to be glued to the base
A girder to link the cell walls to the tower, enabling them to be suspended freely.
