Family tabletop balance game. A tabletop game for families playing across generations: on your turn you plant a tower in one of the twelve numbered sectors, the dish tilts, and the marble rolls into whoever's territory now sits lowest. It also works as a standing kinetic balance object on a shelf between games.

How the balance works. The dish hangs in a gimbal: M3 axles cross at a single height, 0.61 in, so both trunnion axes intersect and the board swings freely up to 15 degrees. A 0.63 in glass marble sits on the flat 0.63 in center pad until one tower's weight breaks the balance and sends it rolling downhill.

What's in your print? Printed parts are the dish, the gimbal ring at 9 in inside and 9.8 in outside diameter and 0.55 in tall, the pedestal, a counterweight plug for the base cavity, and six tower shapes. All fit a 10 in bed. Numbers engrave 0.024 in deep at 0.31 in tall; marble and M3 axles are off-the-shelf.
