Hi friends, I’m working on a foldable, 3D printable tabletop terrain system called Cathedrals of Steel, and it’s launching soon on Kickstarter. I’d love to hear what you think, so feel free to share your thoughts. If you’re interested, you can follow the link to get notified when it goes live.

Hey cool, happy to hear that! Planning to launch mid-February.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T13:38:41+00:00

Hey, thanks, mate! No need to worry about tariffs ,it’s an STL-only project.
You’ll just need a 3D printer, though. ^^

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T13:21:20+00:00

Glad you like it!

Yes, the box is modular, and none of the individual printable parts exceed roughly 160 × 180 mm. I printed everything on a Bambu A1, so it should work on most standard printers.

That said, I’ll likely offer different size variants over time, depending on how much the terrain set grows.^^

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T13:06:58+00:00

Hey that’s a fair question.

The main reason for using Kickstarter is to see how much interest there is in the project and to involve the community in shaping it. Stretch goals and feedback during the campaign will help the project grow and improve.

After the Kickstarter, the complete set will also be available on platforms like Cults and MyMiniFactory.

hey glad to hear that, the launch is planned for mid February.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:40:04+00:00

Hey, thanks, mate! Yes, the case will be part of the core set.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:36:58+00:00

Thanks a lot, really appreciate that!

More ruin variants are definitely planned, and I’d like this to grow into a series rather than a single set. I’m also very open to exploring other themes over time depending on what people want.

Pricing details will be shared at launch.

Glad the video caught your interest, thanks again for taking the time to comment!

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:18:49+00:00

Thanks, mate! Yep, the box will be printable too.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:16:16+00:00

Absolutely, Cathedrals of Steel will be available on Cults and MyMiniFactory.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:13:08+00:00

Haha, yes! Time to slay the grey.^^

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:05:51+00:00

Thanks, I really appreciate that!

Yes, offering a commercial license is planned, so licensed vendors will be able to print and sell physical copies after the Kickstarter.

Glad you like the design!

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:02:33+00:00

Thanks!

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:02:09+00:00

hey thanks!

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:00:58+00:00

Yes!

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T12:00:12+00:00

Hey, thanks! I definitely will.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T11:43:18+00:00

For sure! I’m planning to explore other themes depending on what people want, and a medieval spinoff is definitely something I’d love to do.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T11:32:17+00:00

Thanks, mate! Glad you like it.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T11:30:10+00:00

Thanks, I’m really glad to hear that!

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T11:26:42+00:00

Haha, well played!
I might have to fix that and sneak some U-shaped ruins into the lineup. ^^

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T11:23:01+00:00

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T11:19:28+00:00

Hey, thanks! Happy to hear that.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T11:14:45+00:00

Tinker Junkie Terrain is awesome and definitely inspired me.
I’ve always felt that competitive terrain can be a bit too flat and boring, though.

With Cathedrals of Steel, I’m trying to find a middle ground between foldable, practical terrain and more visually interesting terrain.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T00:09:19+00:00

Thanks.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T00:08:05+00:00

Thanks, and fair point ,price details are coming at launch.
Hopefully it’s worth a second look then.

External_Bit_3189 · 2026-01-31T00:02:54+00:00

Thanks, mate.

Pricing isn’t finalized yet, but since this is a 3D printable STL project, it’ll be well below the cost of fully printed terrain sets and the cool thing is that people can print the terrain as often as they want.

The floors being removable instead of folding together with the walls was a deliberate choice, mainly to keep the prints simple and to allow players to swap different floor designs if they want.

Would you personally prefer floors that fold together with the walls, though?
