Vase Mode Tissue Box with Snap-in Adornments

This tissue box has vertical slots that provide their own aesthetic, but also allow various decorative pieces or attachments to be snapped in. Change up the box's looks when desired without reprinting the box. Add a smaller box to the side to store other items. Get creative!

Printing:

Print with spiral vase mode enabled. The part should be orientated with the chamfered face on the build surface. The STL file should open in the correct orientation.

I used 0.28 layer height and 0.45 layer width. Larger or smaller layers / widths or printer calibration may affect the pin clearance. You can print the first 20mm or so of the tissue box to test fit (turn off the bottom layers if your bed adhesion is good). Using the Test pin STL, check that its fit snug. Scale charms are needed.

I find it easiest to slide the charm or accessory into place from the bottom.

Creating your own:

You can decorate with your own design(s). Just create or download a model and add the included pin to the back. If more than one pin is needed ensure the spacing matches the tissue box slots. The slots are 8mm on-center so multiply the number of slots the second pin is from the first by 8mm.

Update 5/07:

Now includes a rectangular version for flat tissue boxes. Sizes vary quite a bit, but I tried to accommodate the ones I found. The height can be cut or scaled as needed. Internal dimensions: ~230 x 120 x 95mm.

Update 5/05:

I created a side bin that can be found here.
