Mechanical Flower (Jewelry Box)
thingiverse
This is a fully 3D printed mechanical jewelry box made to securely hold an opal necklace pendant. It was created on an Anet A8 printer using a combination of clear and black PETG filament. A switch inside the box recognizes when the lid is open, triggering a change in the light function controlled by an Arduino Uno microcontroller. The lights used are 5050 RGBW neopixels, adding a touch of elegance to the overall design. The movement of the flower mechanism is fully mechanical and does not require any external power source or control system to function properly. I believe it still looks impressive even without the electrical components. If you find the electrical connections and soldering challenging, you may consider opting for just the mechanics instead. Assembly required various M2 and M3 screws as well as small magnets that assist with lid opening and closing (an optional feature). You can view a video demonstration of this project on YouTube at https://youtu.be/qFUZIicuhYg. I will provide additional information soon, so stay tuned for updates.
