Description

This is basically a “Fifth Element" stones skin for the square twist lock box . I didn't print them yet, thus only a simple render is shown, but in the second image you can see how the square twist lock box looks. The left one is printed in Prusament marble, the right one in Prusament woodfill linden. Though it looks and feels nice, I don't recommend the latter since the woodfill lacks the springiness required for the clickiness of the twist&click lock (bayonet lock).

Of course I know that the original stones have a more or less triangular shape and the lines don't resemble the original very closely, but I personally found the square base shape more usable and the more regular line shapes more pleasing.

Printing: standard settings, no supports. I used a 0.4mm nozzle and 0.2mmlayer height. Don't go too high with the layer height, since there are 60° overhangs.
