Treasure Chest Container
🕑 Added 2023-03-26 17:45:01 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
This was a slightly different month than the previous ones where I was mostly doing busts and mini dudes.
This month I've released Mini Doc Brown and Mini McFly, 2 masks, Grogu and Anzellan and I was planning to release one bust but but since I was super excited about the new Dungeons & Dragons movie I decided to make something inspired by DnD.
Now since I'm actually releasing a few models today and I'm not sure which post you are reading first I will copy/paste the same intro in both posts :)
This is a print-in-place container and hopefully, more people will like this and give me a reason to make more because I have a few ideas for future containers. Not gonna say much but actual locks, tentacles and some other stuff are coming to my mind :D
As always, info on how to download the files is located here.
This is a one or two or three-part model, it's really up to you :D
You can just print the chest, or you can print the chest and glue teeth (if you want them) or you can print all three parts and use the key to lock the teeth part in place. That was just a goofy idea I had and it's not perfect, I would still suggest that you glue the teeth part inside the chest.
Printing tips
Ok, this is kind of important!
The chest is scaled down to the minimal size I suggest for printing. Maybe it can go smaller but I wouldn't recommend that.
I've printed the chest part with some minimal support under the handles on both sides but I haven't used any inside.
It's really up to you will you use some support for the inside part or not because if you decide not to use any you will have some sacrificial layers that you will have to cut away. Just in case I would suggest some support right in the middle of both sides.
You can see how the inside of the chest looks printed without any support printed on the Bambu X1C.
For the final touch, I would suggest some small magnets to hold the lid in place. Since I've made this as a print in place I had to sacrifice that functionality but I promise, next one will be even better :D
I can't guess at what scale will people print this model so I didn't include any holes for the magnets but that should be easy to make inside the slicer with some basic shapes.
Talk to you soon :)
