Greetings, all.
I just wanted to show my stackable, 3D-printable tokens for Power/Toughness, Life, Mana, Loyalty, Energy, and Abilities.
I designed the token itself. The symbols on the facings are, of course, the intellectual property of Magic the Gathering. They own the symbol copyrights. The abilities symbols were designed by Pamela Ansman-Wolfe for Duels of the Planeswalkers. Because I don't the copyrights to the symbols, these tokens are NOT FOR SALE. You can, however, print your own. Find them on Thingiverse here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:1815081

Nice! I can see these being very useful for teaching new and/or younger players to give them a more visual experience.

Could I pay you to print some "extra" and ship them over to me? And I then could ship you a pretty check for time and resources spent, plus a fiver because you'd be doing me a solid.
I really need these bad. I don't recall how many times I've had to bring extra lands, tokens, etc (or pull them from my other decks) to visually symbolize all the excess mana or tokens I have, for both me and my opponents. These would be small and easy enough to carry in my dice bag.
However, unfortunately, I live in a small town in the boondocks where the nearest 3d printer is far too long a drive away and it's precise whereabouts unknown to me.

There will never be enough counters to use for my main deck. I'm making +1/+1 counters in one turn on a scale that would make cry.

Haha, it is. Brand new and unplayed. I need to get some sleeves.

Thank you for your interest. Unfortunately, these suckers, while fast to print individually, take a long time to print all together, especially considering all the filament colors.
You could get an online service like Shapeways to print them for a small fee. They even have options to print in resin, metal or ceramic (at a higher cost). http://www.shapeways.com/

A question for all: what are the top abilities that could use counters that I haven't made above?

One thing I would appreciate would be Experience Counters, but if you want a general list, I made one not too long ago that I regularly update.

Thanks, mtgoldie
Eiti3, experience counters are a great idea. What would be the best symbol to put on it? This one? http://www.mtgmintcard.com/images/ebay_products/00/46/98/63/469863_1.jpg

That would make the most logical sense. People could easily connect the two without the need of picture reference or manual.
