impossible dovetail box with a secret compartment

thingiverse

I'm taking my first stab at building an impossible dovetail box from scratch. Initially, it was conceived as a test project because I wasn't exactly confident about its outcome. But then something unexpected happened - it turned out really well, and I felt compelled to share it with others. There are still some things that need fine-tuning, like the printing scale and the bolt pitch. The "guide sticks" aren't meant to be printed; they're just a visual aid to help me create the dovetail in 3D.
