If you like retro video games and also drinking things, you’re in luck! Print them for your living room! Print them for your friends! I hope these characters remind you of some of your favorite series.
I returned to this project after 10 years to make more coasters, including some designs for multi-plastic printers and a reinforced 4-coaster holder!




It was super fun returning to this project! I was able to fix a few things that I had noticed failing over the years, like the new reinforced sides to the “? Block” holder. Now that multi-color prints are proliferating more widely, I’m hoping people can use the new colored files - they really pop with the Silk+Matte PLA combo I used here. Links to those filaments:

I’ve included an openscad file for customizing multiple sizes of pixel art for your own designs, based on the awesome customizable version by ahtly here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:139754
