This is a large scoreboard compatible with all leagues and teams where the score stays between 1 and 9, although you can make your own number cards and allow the score to go higher. If you do this, the score board is compatible with all teams and leagues, so you can keep track and update the table live or if you were playing a made-up game you could keep score with that. 

How it works is that there is one major board with a cutout for a team on either side and cutout for the score in the middle. There is large text that says scoreboard at the top and a space for a league name at the bottom. There is also a cutout at the top for the word scoreboard. There is a version called Scoreboard with Letters and Scoreboard with indentation. If you choose the indentation there is an STL you can download and print to fill in the word scoreboard in a different color. It is called Scoreboard Text and is available in model files. If you wanted to change the dimensions there is also an SVG available in the other files section. Scoreboard with Letters would require you to change filaments. 

As for the other blanks, there are STLs that have blocks that fit into these spots. These STLs are blank and ready to be edited. Found in the folder Blank Slates for Editing. See cover photo for understanding. You can use velcro for the attachment of the blocks to the board.

No matter how you do this, there will have to be color-changes in between the card itself and the text on the card. This will have to happen in order for the number, team or league to be visible. There are two ways to achieve this, and I have files for both. 

  1. If you are using a Bambu Lab AMS Printer or printer that can change colors without manual intervention, then by all means do that. This is by far the easiest and best method. These files are available in “Numbers and Blocks Connected,” but they are not painted.
  2. a. If you do not have one of those printers then you must either manually change filaments by manually editing your .gcode to pause so you can change filaments or b. you can print my files with indentations in them in the shape of numbers and then print the numbers themselves in a different color and then superglue them together. I have provided these blocks in the folder “Number Blocks With Indentation” and the numbers themselves in “Numbers” However, only numbers 0-9 are available in each of those. 

Additionally, in the other files section there are SVGs so that if you wanted to cover higher scoring games you could scale down the numbers in an alternate program and clip them together with the appropriate sized block. For reference, the dimensions of each number are 25.64mm by 37.65mm. 

All of the same information is true for teams and leagues except for the names and details listed below. 

There are no provided teams. All that is provided is a blank slate STL and you can use one of the aforementioned methods and editing in an alternate program to add your team(s).

Leagues are the same as teams. 

Teams files, numbers files, and leagues files all are in different folders. 

All print settings are standard.

I know this is a relatively confusing set of instructions. If you didn't understand please comment and I'll try to help as soon as possible.
