The Impossible Dovetail Box!
This is a high-precision Print-in-Place design featuring a friction-fit dovetail slide! 🧩 There are no mechanical locks—the pieces stay together through perfectly tuned, stiff tolerances. It looks like an "impossible" interlocking object, but it can be slid open or pulled apart with firm pressure! 🪄
📦 Two Versions Included:
- 🔑 3g Micro-Stash Keychain:
- The Build: Ultra-lightweight and goes right on your keychain! 🏃♂️
- The Secret: Small internal compartment for emergency cash or a tiny note. 🕵️♂️
- 💎 30g Heavyweight Desktop Stash:
- The Build: 10x the weight for a premium, solid hand-feel. No keychain hole—just pure desk-fidget satisfaction. 🦾
- The Secret: A much larger internal cavity for bigger items. 🎁
✨ Key Features:
- 📐 Friction-Fit Dovetail: The joint is designed to be stiff. It won't slide open or fall apart on its own, keeping your stash secure while it hangs on your keys! 🔒
- 💥 Pull-Apart Design: While the pieces interlock, an intentional, firm pull allows you to separate the halves completely to access the hidden compartment! 🔓
- 🕵️ Invisible Storage: When closed, the seam is tight, making it look like a solid geometric object to anyone who doesn't know the secret! 🤫
- 🖨️ Print-in-Place: No assembly, no glue, no extra parts. Ready to use straight off the build plate! ✨
🛠️ Recommended Print Settings:
- 🚫 Supports: NONE. (Internal dovetails are designed to bridge perfectly).
- 📏 Layer Height: 0.2mm.
- 🧱 Wall Loops: 3 (Recommended for the 30g version to give it strength).
- 🌪️ Infill: 15-20% Gyroid.
- 🌈 Material: Works great in PLA, Silk,TPU,or PETG!
⚠️ DANGER: Wait for it to cool!
DO NOT try to slide the dovetail immediately after the print finishes. 🛑 If the plastic is still warm, the dovetail joint is weak and MIGHT SNAP. Let the model cool down completely on the build plate. This makes the joint much stronger and ensures it won't break when you first open it!
