Simple Secret Box V: Gift Box Edition

youmagine

The kids and grandkids really enjoy secret opening boxes (and, I must confess, so do I), so I designed "Simple Secret Box V: Gift Box Edition" as another box with a hidden locking mechanism. This box utilizes neodymium magnets and ferrous pins to lock the mechanism in place, requiring a sharp jolt on the correct axis to open it successfully. The ribbons are optional, but with the upcoming holidays approaching, I decided to add them to give these boxes, containing small gifts inside, to family and friends. As a final note, if you choose not to assemble this as a locking box, simply skip the steps dealing with the pins and magnets, and you will have a gift box featuring dovetail construction that is easy to open. As usual, I likely overlooked a file or two or who knows what else, so please don't hesitate to ask any questions if needed. I do make mistakes in plenty. Designed using Autodesk Fusion 360, sliced using Cura 3.4.1 and printed in PLA on both an Ultimaker 2+ Extended and an Ultimaker 3 Extended.
