About Us
We're Veruand Jeník.
We help you get your board games to the table more often and with less setup.
MitroCZECH is our family workshop, where we design, print and pack 3D-printed inserts, overlays and accessories for board games.
We make and pack everything ourselves, with our own printers and a mild obsession with keeping games organized.
We play the games ourselves, test our designs at the table and refine them to speed up setup, make cleanup easier and make opening the box a pleasure.
Veru + Jeník • MitroCZECH. We're a small family-run workshop for board gamers. We make things we want to use at our own game table.
More playing, less setup.
We want your favorite games to be easier to set up, more comfortable to play and quicker to pack away.
We design inserts
Our box organizers give every component a place and make setup more intuitive.
Browse inserts →We print accessories
Overlays, bowls, boxes, trays, counters, stands and other handy accessories for your games.
Game accessories →We test at the table
We refine our designs based on how people use them during play, going beyond the measurements on screen.
We pack with care
We check and carefully pack every order so it arrives in good condition.
Shipping and payment →Made in our own workshop.
Run by our family.
MitroCZECH is the two of us, surrounded by games, printers, boxes, filament, testing, packing and everyday family life.
Veru
Veru handles much of the packing, quality checks, day-to-day operations and printing of established products. She turns piles of boxes, parts and orders into parcels ready to ship.
Jeník
Jeník designs inserts, builds 3D models and prototypes, prints new ideas and tests them in play. Sometimes a quick little idea turns into a much bigger project.
Your 3D printing teammate
That's a promise we take seriously. If you're unsure about something, we'll help. If there's a problem with a product, we'll sort it out. When you place an order with us, we want it to arrive safely and be something you're happy to use.
Board games, printers and family chaos are all part of MitroCZECH.
Some days we're refining an insert at the game table. Other days we're packing orders in the evening. In between, there are kids, boxes, rolls of filament and all the usual goings-on at home.
We pack every order the way we'd pack it for a friend we look forward to playing with again.
From the game box to the finished insert.
A good insert fits the game, its components, expansions and sleeved cards. It also makes setup and cleanup easier and keeps components handy during play.
We unpack the game
We work out what players need during setup and what's taking up room in the box.
We design the layout
We plan trays, boxes, lids, setup order, room for expansions and how the game box will be stored.
We print a prototype
The first version is rarely the last. We test it, measure it and make adjustments.
We playtest
Playing the game tells us whether the design makes things easier at the table. Once it does, we release it.
A look around our workshop.
A glimpse of our workspace, designs and everyday work.
It started with a single piece for Terraforming Mars.
A practical fix for one of our own games grew into a workshop, an online store, a community of customers and a brand that ships board game accessories around the world.
We first try 3D printing to make pieces for Terraforming Mars.
We open our Etsy shop, BoardGameHolic, and start selling an insert for Dune: Imperium and stickers for Everdell.
We launch our Czech online store, MitroCZECH.cz, and begin building a small print farm.
3D printing becomes our main job, and we start working with more stores, designers and publishers.
We move into a new workshop, attend events and meet customers in person.
We found MitroCZECH BoardGameHolic s.r.o. and continue building partnerships in Czechia and abroad.
We keep designing, printing and testing, always looking for ways to get board games to the table more often.
Read the full story
We made our first inserts for fun and for our own games. Over time came color prints, bigger projects, an Etsy shop, a Czech online store, collaborations with designers and more printers.
Our hobby became our job, then a family project, then a brand built around the same idea of making accessories that work well for players at the table.
Meet us on camera and at events.
We've been featured in interviews, reports and reviews, and we love meeting fellow players in person.
