Box with self-adjusting lid
thingiverse
I just saw a video on youtu- however.. I liked the idea of that lid which always stays in position and doesn't need any hinges or so.The images show my first prototype before it was cleaned and glued together. I'll upload a better image if I find the time to make one..It's not really designed for printing although it may work. Outer dimension of the box is always the given dimension (INNER_DIMENSION) plus two times the material thickness (WALL_THICKNESS)You can set the position and size of the cut using CUTOUT_POSITION and CUTOUT_HEIGHT. Cutout width is always 4 times the Wall thickness.The number of jointing fingers is set using the parameter TEETH. Notice: you need the generated parts twice!Have fun!Edit: I have edited the top/bottom part so the corners aren't missing anymore :)
