When a Crucial Brick Went Missing
I was helping the kids finish a small skyline when we realized a single playing piece was missing. The build came to a dead stop, moods dropped, and I had neither the time nor the knowledge to learn CAD just to recreate one tiny part.
Finding a Simpler Way
I opened an online generator and chose a LEGO®-compatible shape. With simple sliders and a live 3D preview, I adjusted the size and holes, then added a small raised icon so we could find it quickly in the toolbox. No modeling, just a few clicks.
Back to the Build
I exported an STL file, printed the part, and it clicked in perfectly. The kids immediately asked for variations: a meeple-like playing piece, a small plate with raised text, and even an engraved logo for their town hall. Our builds feel more personal and organized now.
Why I Rely on Shapiful
The difference was how quickly everything fell into place: clear controls, precise dimensions, and print-ready files that fit right into our routine. I'm not a designer, but I can still create compatible parts that repair sets, label boxes, and spark new ideas. For reliable, printable designs like this, Shapiful delivers the tools I need without extra hassle.
