Here are small containers for hiding geocaches and treasure hunt prizes. They're also great for organizing small doo-dads.
There are 5 height sizes and 3 styles.
All have diameters of 70.2mm outside and 58mm inside.
The heights are:
- 11mm
- 14mm
- 20mm
- 26mm
- 32mm
- 38mm
The styles are:
- Regular
- Hanger (has a hole that you can use to hang on a nail or screw)
- Magnetized (has cutouts for 6mm wide by 3mm tall magnets: https://bit.ly/3UjlY3C )
The smaller sizes are great for stashing keys, dogtags, and other flat items. Use the larger sizes for bigger prizes and doo-dad storage.
I recommend printing a single top/bottom test before you print more. If the threads are too tight or too loose, adjust X/Y Compensation (Prusaslicer) or Horizontal Expansion (Cura). A negative X/Y Compensation value will make the threads looser. (For example, -0.1mm.)
For the magnetic version, glue the magnets in with superglue or your preferred adhesive. A negative X/Y Compensation value will also make the magnet holes larger.
