A simple tile dispenser for Cascadia tiles. The only part you need to buy is a cheap $1 pack of rubber hair ties at any Walmart. The packs usually come with 3 sizes of bands, I used the larger of the 3. I've tested the Cascadia tiles extensively, but don't have my own copies of Apiary and Dorfromantik. I created those based on other's reported measurements, so please let me know if they work! 

V0.6 Assembly Instructions: Assemble by putting a goody hair tie center slot in the slider, secured by a piece of filament placed perpendicularly through the hole in the side. Then insert the slider into the slot in the lower dispenser mechanism so the angled notch is on top and goes in last. Secure the other end of the band with another piece of filament to the dispenser. Lastly load the upper hopper assembly on top of the device. 

V0.5 Detailed Assembly instruction video can be found here: 


I was inspired by Mark Jennison's Cascadia Tile dispenser, but wanted something simpler that didn't require extra hardware. 

Printed in normal PLA with all normal settings, including supports. The lower assembly needs to be printed on its end with the openings facing up to make supports minimal.

You can stack the hoppers to hold more tiles, or simply scale it vertically.
