Pill boxes

thingiverse

This project began as a means to create a container that could hold an entire week's worth of medication for someone taking three doses daily. The next logical step was to develop similar variants. Each compartment in the design is spacious enough to accommodate several large pills at once. Additionally, the covers can be easily snapped into any of these compartments, allowing users to pour the contents from one cell directly into their hand by simply tilting it. For optimal results, I highly recommend using flexible filament for printing this design. In my testing with PLA, while the prints functioned adequately, the added flexibility greatly enhances user experience. To achieve a more natural snap-shut action, I sealed the edges of my prints and then used a heat gun to warm the back panel, thus allowing it to default into its closed position by itself.
