Screw-Top Container

This innovative container was a test of endurance to see how tricky it is to craft interlocking components that mesh seamlessly together. The pivotal challenge lies in striking the perfect balance between the clearance between the male and female threads. I'm thrilled to report that it only took me two attempts to nail this crucial aspect. Notably, these two parts boast left-handed threads, a departure from conventional norms. This means that attaching the top requires a counterclockwise turn, while removing it necessitates a clockwise motion. To ensure a smooth experience, I found it beneficial to begin by making several partial on/off rotations to gently wear off any minor imperfections resulting from the printing process. The threads fit remarkably snugly, so it's conceivable that over-tightening the top might render removal impossible.
