Trap Tiles/Tokens

Just spent two hours on google and am having no luck. I'm looking for a variety of trap tiles or tokens, printable or purchasable, for use with 1" sq. maps. I can't believe I'm having so little luck finding a good resource in this area. Yeah, I can find the occasional spiked pit trap tile, but usually only by itself are part of a set of other tiles I've no use for.
Does anyone know a good resource in this area? Just need traps, lots and lots of traps; scything blades, spears, darts, pits, etc, etc, etc.

If you don't mind doing a little crafty, I highly recommend checking out DM Scotty's YouTube videos. He makes amazing terrain out of junk you probably have laying around at home and inexpensive items from dollar and hardware stores.

There are others.

If you have a 3-D printer, you can buy files for individual pieces. I decided against buying a 3D printer for now. The cost of the machine, the time it takes to print terrain that you still have to paint anyway....just not worth it to me. But if you are into 3D printing, it is the easiest way to get just one specific piece that you need.

Fat Dragon Games has a good selection of 3D terrain files for 3D printers.

I do a lot of paper terrain. I have a Silhouette paper-cutting machine, so I can churn out the pieces quickly if I have a cut file. Fat Dragon games is one of my favorites sources, but for paper you generally have to by a set. They don't sell just one piece. You may still want to check out their various EZ Dungeon expansion kits.

Lastly, check out Dungeonographer, which lets you easily create Dungeon maps and has some stock traps to put into them. It has tools to print at 1" scale.

Campaign Cartographer is more powerful but also more expensive and has a much higher learning curve.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the reply. I have a game mastery dungeon map I'll be using, so was just looking for some quick tokens for the traps to put out when needed; the party is a few days behind another group so many of the traps they encounter will already be set off or disabled, but I thought having the scenery for it would be nice. I don't do the 3d printing or terrain yet at this point but I'll check out dungeonographer, maybe I can just print a single sheet loaded with traps and cut them out. Thanks.
