Description

This parametric box has been redesigned from the ground up to fix the long-standing issues users were having while taking into account a couple of personal goals for design considerations.

  • Fully 3D-Printed, no hardware needed!
  • Flush hinge and clasp, allowing users to neatly store multiple boxes next to each other.
  • Completely redesigned the hinge mechanism to be a double articulating motion held captive by 1.75mm filament.  The filament holes are modifiable dimensions to allow each user to hone in a perfect fit.
  • Latching mechanism is now printed separately so it can be printed in the best orientation for strength.  The clasp is also held via filament at the top.  
  • The retaining bar at the bottom is also printed separately and inserted through the side of the bottom object.  This design choice was made to prevent users from needing to print with overhangs or support material.

Please print the hinge, clasp and retaining bars in this orientation for greatest strength.

Please share your makes and be sure to tag this design if you remix it. I loved seeing the iterations you came up with over the years and look forward to seeing your continued creativity!
