A practical FAQ on the Replacement Board Stand: what it is, how it fits your Turing Tumble board, and how to set it up so your board stays stable during play.
Quick answer
The Replacement Board Stand is a spare stand for your Upper Story board, sold as an individual extra part. It is designed as a direct replacement so you can keep using your board setup as intended. If your current stand is lost, damaged, or you want a backup, this is the part to get.
What the Replacement Board Stand actually is
It is not a new board or a different mounting system. The Replacement Board Stand is the stand that accompanies the Virtual Pack, offered on its own so you can replace a missing or broken stand without buying a whole new set. The SKU for the standard version is TT01201. If you already own a Turing Tumble board and just need the stand, this is the part that matches your existing setup.
How to tell if this stand fits your board
The stand is made for the Upper Story board that ships with the Virtual Pack. If your board came from that pack, the Replacement Board Stand is a direct fit. If you are unsure which board version you have, check the packaging or the board itself for a model or pack name before ordering. The catalog does not list separate option types for this part, so there is no size or color choice to make—it is a single standard replacement.
Setting up the stand without frustration
Attach the stand to the board before you load marbles or place any puzzle pieces. The stand is designed to hold the board at the angle the game expects, so if it feels loose or forced, stop and check that you have the correct orientation. Once seated, give the board a gentle press to confirm it is stable. A stand that wobbles will make marble runs unpredictable, so take a moment to get it right before play.
When a spare stand is worth having
If your board gets moved between rooms, packed for travel, or used by multiple people, a spare stand removes the risk of a lost part stopping play. The stand is small and easy to misplace, and without it the board may not sit correctly. Keeping a Replacement Board Stand on hand is a low-cost way to avoid that downtime. It is also useful if you own more than one board and want each to have its own stand.
What this stand does not include
This is only the stand. It does not come with a board, marbles, puzzle book, or any other components. If you also need a physical puzzle book to follow along remotely or over someone's shoulder, the Turing Tumble Replacement Puzzle Book is available separately. For easier marble reloading, especially with adult-sized fingers, the Turing Tumble Marble Reloader is another extra part that can help.
Replacement Board Stand FAQ
- Is this stand compatible with my existing Turing Tumble board?
- The stand is designed for the Upper Story board that comes with the Virtual Pack. If your board is from that pack, it is a direct fit. No separate option types are listed, so there is no size or variant to choose. Check your board's pack name if unsure; otherwise it is a standard replacement.
- Do I need any tools to set up the stand?
- Setup is tool-free. Attach the stand to the board before loading marbles, and make sure it sits flat and stable. If it feels loose, re-seat it rather than forcing it. A stable stand prevents wobbly marble runs.
- What if I also need a puzzle book or marble reloader?
- The stand is sold alone. The Turing Tumble Replacement Puzzle Book gives you a physical copy to follow along, and the Turing Tumble Marble Reloader helps pick up and reload marbles, especially for adult-sized fingers. Order these separately if you want them alongside the stand.
