This is a storage box and stacking jig for the popular block stacking game.
My young son and I were looking for fun games to play a while back and the classic Jenga game was one we wanted to try. I've long lost my old set, so a quick perusal of Amazon.com found the original game. So I thought.
Since it was introduced the blocks don't seem to have changed but the package has been cheapened a lot; the nice stacking and storage box that used to be included is a thing of the past. So I came to Thingiverse to find one. The only one I found was sadly a bit deficient after I printed it and tried it. The sliders didn't slide smoothly, it was a little flimsy, the outside had a lot of sharp edges, the blocks fit a little more loosely than I would find ideal, some support was needed for a good print, and worst of all the blocks could fall out the sides if we tipped it at the wrong angle.
That last one was a deal breaker for me.
So I busted out OpenSCAD and made a better mousetrap
