Description

The box is for a set of small files. 
Dimensions of files:

  • total length ~170mm
  • handle length ~48mm
  • shaft 5mm

Printer settings:

  • Layer height 0.2mm
  • Perimeters: 3
  • Infill: 15%
  • Supports: No

I printed the box with PETG using modified "Prusa MK4 Input Shaper 0.4 nozzle 0.2 mm speed" settings - it worked well. Cover has tight fitting - in CAD it is 0.2 mm clearance. The box won't fall apart on its own - you have to open it. 
 

Attached are two versions of cover: plain and with text. Version with text could be printed using "manual MMU" method - see attached SmallFileToolsBoxCover.3mf for detail settings:

  • filament 1 - box color (first used filament)
  • filament 2 - text color
     

Prusa MK4 has currently bug: Manual MMU Freezes the printer black LCD screen so using "manual MMU" method requires workaround: upload file using PrusaLink with checked “Start print after transfer”.
