01

Choose Your Trays

Trays are available for 25mm, 28mm, 28.5mm, 32mm, 40mm, 50mm, and 60mm bases. Each uses print-in-place hinges that snap open to load your minis, then close to lock them securely in place, no extra parts needed.

02

Build Your Layers

The case is a base, a set of lids, and as many Layers as you need. Add a new layer for a new unit, a token holder, or a paint caddy, no screws, magnets, nuts, bolts, heated inserts, hinges, or locks required.

No Hardware
03

Load and Lock

Slide the loaded trays into the frame, the trays complete the shell of the case, making every part multi-functional. A built-in locking clip holds the two halves together for transport, released by pressing both sides with your fingers.

Foam-Free

Modular By Design

Every tray fits every case. Every case stacks on every case. Mix sizes, swap factions, reconfigure before every game night.

// 3 case sizes · ∞ tray configs

Print in Hours

Optimised for speed on any FDM printer. A full case shell and lid prints in under 6 hours on a standard 0.4mm nozzle at 0.2mm layers.

// 0.2mm layers · 15% infill · PLA/PETG

Dramatically Lighter

Foam cases for a 2,000pt army can weigh 3kg or more. A full LayerSafe load weighs under 1.4kg. Your back will thank you at 4-hour events.

// avg 68% weight reduction vs foam

No Foam, No Damage

Foam grips and presses. Antennae, capes, wings, all the bits that make your conversion special get bent or snapped. Slot trays hold at the base only.

// base-only contact · safe for kitbashes

Faction Colour Coding

Print case rails in your faction colour. Black body, Ultramarines blue rails. Or go full custom, the case is your canvas. No painting needed.

// 2-colour friendly · any FDM filament

Open Licence STLs

Print as many copies as you need for personal use. Files are optimised for home printers, no supports needed on any core component.

Built because the old way wasn't good enough.

I'm Kevin, a full-time programmer, dad of three, and tabletop gamer for over 20 years living on the west coast of Ireland. Between work, parenting, and walking the dog, I squeeze in as much hobby time as I can across Warhammer 40K, Kill Team, Necromunda, Age of Sigmar, Adeptus Titanicus, and Dungeons & Dragons.

For years I used shoeboxes, recycled foam, and tupperware to transport armies, functional, but embarrassing. When I got back into 3D printing I looked at every printable case out there and found they either needed multiple kg of filament or so many parts you'd need instructions to assemble one. That's when the idea for LayerSafe was born, minimal parts, no hardware, print-in-place hinges, built-in locking clip. Just print, assemble, and go. Funded by 130 backers who felt exactly the same way.

Designed & tested in Galway, Ireland
