Soft-pick Case with Hinged Lid

thingiverse

A case designed specifically for storing your GUM Soft-picks, sized perfectly to fit an 80-pack. The lid should be oriented vertically when printing, as indicated in the stl file, to enhance the strength of the hinge posts - a crucial factor during installation. To achieve optimal results, I set a 5 mm brim in CURA, which helps stabilize the print throughout its duration. To attach the lid securely onto the case, align the hinges with the lid in a closed position and then insert one hinge pin into its designated hole before pressing down on the opposite corner to click that pin firmly into place. I successfully printed mine using PLA, and surprisingly, it didn't break during installation - the hinge tabs had just enough flexibility. However, printing with PETG would undoubtedly provide even greater safety.
