4 Make Your Own Paper Icehouse Nests/Pyramids
Includes 2 pages for making your own paper icehouse nests or pyramids for play with some of Decktet's games. These pyramids come in 6 colors (Grey/Black, Yellow, Red, Blue, Green and Purple) and each in 3 different sizes (1", 1.5" and 2"). Cut them out and glue or tape them together. These can be easily folded down to minimize storage space. Enjoy!

24 Cards in png format
All the cards out of the pdf and into .png files. Suitable for getting a custom deck of cards printed up. Good for submitting the deck to ArtsCow or another custom deck publisher. This is an update of the file uploaded by Jason Spears. The cards has been edited by me to erase several guiding lines, and to incorporate to the pack the four courts. No card backs are provided, they will come shipped in another file (and another for covers).

4 Crib sheet for using the Fortune Widgets font
Here is a crib sheet for the special characters to be found in the Fortune Widget font. This font is used in The Decktet Book, was created by PD Magnus and is available for free at fontmonkey.com. When I am using this font I can never remember which key does what, so I made this up and thought I'd share it.
