"tin" box with lid (vase mode)

This is a small, two part box. I made it in the design of all those tin boxes. I needed to store a bunch of small fiddly parts. We all have small fiddly parts. Print one and put them all in there.

Print instructions

This model was designed to be printed with a standard 0.4mm nozzle, though it will work with a 0.6mm or 0.8mm nozzle as well, so everyone can print one!

Here are some recommended settings and information about the design, to help you get the best print:

- Spiral vase mode / Spiralize outer contour: turn this on, this is how the whole magic works - Line Width: 0.8mm ( this is important, and yes, you can do it with a 0.4mm nozzle ) - Layer Height: 0.3mm ( not necessarily required, but anything more and the curves don't work as well ) - Bottom Thickness / Bottom Layers: 1.5mm (e.g. 5 layers at 0.3mm layer height) ( this is important to get the best quality bottom with this model ) - Wall speed: 30mm/s ( you are pushing a lot of plastic, so a slower speed is best, though if you are confident in your hot end you can go faster ) - Printing Temperature: +10 to +15 degrees hotter than your usual temperature ( for example, I usually print PLA at 200, but print this model at 210 ) - Flow: 110% ( because why not ) - Ironing: turn this on ( it is definitely not required, but you get a better surface quality on the inside surface… you can also turn this off to save 15 minutes if you prefer ) - Ironing Line Spacing: 0.4mm ( half of the line width should be plenty ) - Ironing Speed: 40mm/s ( maybe even faster if you are feeling wild ) Notes

The prints in the photos were printed in Overture Matte Jean Red PLA, Gizmo Dorks Glitter Gray PLA, and Tpoimns Lake Green PLA, on a largely unmodified Elegoo Neptune 2 with a 0.4mm nozzle.
