Introduction: 3D Print Your Own Scrabble Set
This is a whole Scrabble set I designed and made to be used for replacement pieces or to build your own set from scratch...
Here's a video explaining how to set the pieces up for dual extrusion and explains the difference between my three different designs...
Here's the Thingiverse Page...

The dimensions are 19x19x4 which is the standard scrabble piece size...
I have 1 design for dual extrusion which takes to STLs... "Dual_Letter_X" and "Dual_Shell_X"... I explain in the video how to print them if you're not familiar with dual extrusion...
I also have two designs for single extrusion... One with a cut in where the letter is and another with extruded letters so you can make a Z stop at 4mm and change filament to a different color...
Everything else is self explanatory.... If you have an questions or comments, feel free to leave a comment or message me directly...
Enjoy!!!

It is nice but surely infringes copyright?

Nope. A) that's not what copyright is - copyright is about the written word, like books, lyrics, scripts, etc. - artistic expression. This might fall under patent or trademark - but it doesn't actually violate either of those, especially if you're making them for personal use and not for sale (and even then, any patent, which would be a design rather than utility (normal) patent, would be long-expired, and if you don't call it Scrabble (and again aren't selling it) there can't be a trademark issue. (People run around waving "patent" and other IP boogeyman issues all the time often without the faintest idea of what any of them actually are, how they work, or what they apply to, sigh....)
