Summary

I really like ClericAaron's dice tower with the swappable trays, but it was just a touch too tall (145mm) for my Dreamer (Z 140mm.) Also, it's a long build and I needed it for a gift the next day; couldn't afford to get ten hours in and have something go wrong. (What? What could possibly go wrong when 3D printing???)

I used OpenSCAD to slice the main tower into four smaller parts. To assist with assembly, there are peg holes for aligning each section. The holes are 10mm height and 5mm diameter; just print some slightly smaller pegs to put this together, apply a bit of epoxy...or, drop a couple of magnets in one piece and metal BBs in the opposite.

The bottom opening is sliced about halfway through, so I took out ClericAaron's custom support. The second piece, the arch, is now pretty low to the print bed and printed just fine with support in Simplify3D.
