Gift Box #19
Added 2024-12-17 01:39:23 +0000 UTCThis box opens by pushing the correct side ribbon in. This pulls in detents on both sides of the box. The ribbon seam is hidden under the bow so its hard to tell which ribbon you need to push.
Printing
Its roughly 100mm x 100m x 80mm tall. The top prints in place as one part with no supports, designed for a .4mm nozzle. The bow and ribbons for the top are printed separately and are glued on. I used Starbond Medium CA(aff) glue. Be sure to only glue half of the ribbons and the bow that cover the slot as marked on the box top.
I printed all the parts in the orientation the stl’s are provided in. Use helper discs or a brim to them to keep the ribbons stable during printing. I printed everything at .2 layer heights but the box could definitely be printed at a larger layer height without issue.
Thanks to Jamg HE for being the filament sponsor by providing their PLA+ for this years gift boxes. I used their green, blue and white for this box. You can get an additional 10% off with coupon code: ICEDC0611. Its a good deal for PLA+ when multiple spools are purchased.
