Changelog:
- 03/26/2022: Made top pegs and gear frame pegs stronger.
- 08/08/2021: Adding Triangle V3 STL which has a tighter tolerance peg. Also added rounded edges so that it doesn't get caught on the Ring.
- 08/07/2021: Added V2 Gear Frame and Spur Gear STLs to make the pegs more secure
- 07/10/2021: New Triangle STL has been uploaded

This is a geared box with a unique opening mechanism.
When you twist the base of the box, the triangular top pieces swing open, and then close again on the other side.
IMPORTANT: In your slicer, scale down all of the files to 90%. I overestimated when I first created the design.
I included a picture of a smaller scale version with all the parts laid out.
Parts:
Ring x1
Body x1
Gear Frame x1
Triangle x6
Small Gear x6
