Assembly Instructions

• Remove Supports from Hinges: Carefully remove all support material, especially from inside the hinges, to ensure smooth movement.
• Clean Box Corners: Remove any remaining supports from the corners of the box to prepare for hinge assembly.
• Align Hinge Components: Position the middle hinge (on the corner piece) piece between the two outer hinge parts(on the main box), aligning them accurately.
• Prepare Filament Pin: Cut a piece of filament from your spool, matching the hinge colour, to serve as the hinge pin.
• Insert Filament into Hinge: Carefully insert the filament piece through the aligned hinge parts, ensuring it passes through all components smoothly.
• Trim Excess Filament: Using craft wire cutters, trim the filament flush with the hinge edges for a clean finish.
• Repeat for All Hinges: Repeat steps 3 through 6 for each hinge on the box.
• Test Box Operation: Open and close the box to check for smooth movement.
  • If the box doesn't operate smoothly, remove the filament hinge pin, straighten it, and reinsert.
  • to remove filament pin there is a small hole at the other end of the hinge to poke it out. see image below

• Secure Filament (Optional): To prevent the filament from slipping out, apply a small amount of superglue to the ends of the filament after insertion.
