Annoying Gift Boxes Fixes/Improvements
🕑 Added 2024-12-04 11:53:26 +0000 UTCHey everyone!
I've got a couple fixes/improvements for the various Annoying Gift Boxes. Some are things you all have requested, but I also found an issue myself with the most recent expansion that may cause some of you issues. Attached to this post you will find 4 STL's:
1. annoying_box_lid_fix
- I've had a handful of people mention that the lid was a bit snug. This is an updated lid that has more clearance so it should fit onto the container with plenty of space.
2. box_5_lid_fix (need 2)
- Major fix to be able to fit Version 2 into Version 3 more reliably
- Version 3 has an issue I just became aware of this morning, and this was the best way I could think to fix it so you wouldn't have to re-print the big boxes again if you've already printed it. I've had the overall 666 box print successfully on a handful of printers, but recently I had a couple that didn't fit will together.
- I realized if there is any over-extrusion on the lids for Box 5 (Version 2 outer box), then Box 6 will not fit together well enough for the bolts to go in.
- These new lids for Box 5 open up plenty of space for Box 6 to close and everything to line up the way it should.
3. box_6a_fix
- A minor improvement for Version 3 (666 box)
- A few people mentioned the fit between box 6a and 6b was snug, so this is a new version of box_6a with more clearance.
4. all_in_one_tool
- New tool for the 5 different bolt variations
- I've been struggling keeping up with the 5 different tools for the different bolt variations, so I combined them all into one. Makes things much easier for anybody printing and selling with the different bolt variations.
That's it for now! One other request I've had a few times is to be able to use the ribbon from version 2 on version 3. I've got it noted and will see what I can do! in the meantime, I'm working hard on getting a new holiday print out ASAP!
As always, thank you all for the support and the great feedback! Hope these fixes help!

excellent, thanks. just wanted to be sure.

Yes! The existing box 5 old files were already the same thing, I should have labeled them that way the first time instead of two separate files
Joe Banks
for #2 the box_5_lid_fix, does this one file replace both of the existing box 5 lid files?
ThinAir3D
That is on my list of updates/improvements for the boxes! I want to design a "universal" ribbon that will fit on any on of them via the pre-existing screw holes as well so at that point the ribbon hole for box 5 will be closed up and that will be the only version that exists. I'll see if I can get together a no ribbon version for you all as soon as possible!

Can we get a no ribbon option for Box 5? Or is it available and I missed it?
ThinAir3D
Very hard to tell without seeing the actual issues myself. If you're not already in the Discord server that is the best place to get help with troubleshooting. You can post photos there and there's always a good handful of people in there happy to help

I'm having trouble printing the lid for Box 6. I keep getting fails. I've tried printing it with different settings, but nothing seems to work. Any suggestions?
Michelle Oliver
I finally Subbed and I'm over the moon the gift the annoying box 20 bolt pattern (I don't wanted to be hatedπ) Definitely love the suggestions for a ribbon that will hold the all in one tool and reverse bolts would be epic πππ THANK YOU for all your hard work and all you do for us.

Annoying Box Lid goes to the smallest 20-bolt box!

With these new updates, which box does the "annoying box lid" correspond to? I want to make sure i don't print something I don't need.
You mad bro 1776
No I have not printed it yet so I was trying to figure out what one I needed to print was all.
ThinAir3D
Not YET, but I have plans to when I get time!
ThinAir3D
I try to remember to as best I can but sometimes make mistakes. Have you noticed something missing?
You mad bro 1776
Do you change the files with the updates or do you have to get them from both locations?
Bob Perciaccante
Any chance you have a ribbon that could screw into one of the threads?
Peter
amen
Mel
Can I make a diabolical suggestion? reverse some of the threads!!!

Love love these files! Truly appreciate the all in one tool!!!!
ThinAir3D
Hopefully there isn't too much re-printing needed! I myself haven't needed the extra clearance on the box 6 at all, just wanted to open it up for the few people that have. Which box are you printing?
