Parametric Vase-Mode Storage Box

thingiverse

This creates a rounded cubic box with adjustable corner roundness and an optional one-line label debossed into its surface. The size of the box is defined by its width, depth, and height, which are set at the top of the OpenSCAD file along with parameters for the label. For rendering, uncomment either body() or lid() and export as STL. Print in spiral-vase mode with three bottom layers. Example STLs for a 50x50x50mm box are provided. To successfully render this design, you'll need a fairly recent build of OpenSCAD. I had to upgrade from my previous 64-bit Windows build (6 January 2018) to the latest version (24 January 2019), which resolved assertion issues on render. A wider nozzle would be ideal for making strong prints. If that's not possible, you can opt for a stronger box by switching to vase mode and setting 2 or more perimeters along with 0% infill in your slicer. On Gentoo Linux, the fkmclane overlay offers an ebuild that builds OpenSCAD from GitHub. **Update:** I've corrected the bottom of the box and squared the top for better stackability. I also adjusted the lid to fit snugly on top.
