Stacking box

Thinking Inside the Box, a New Perspective When stacking boxes, there's no such thing as having too many. They can keep all sorts of items in order: screws, nuts, bolts, toys, or miscellaneous things. A perfect example is our Candy Bowl design, created specifically for testing 3D-prints with large-bore nozzles. Our custom-made box achieves a semi-transparent finish thanks to the 3D-printing process at 0.8mm layerheight and 1.0 mm nozzle settings. Although faster speeds are possible, we chose to keep it low for high-quality printing, resulting in a glossy, shiny surface as seen in our two attached images. In one image, the lower part was printed with higher speed than the top, demonstrating how the slower rate allows for better quality and increased transparency due to precise plastic extrusion and cooling. The end result will be clear of any imperfections. Our custom box measures 120x120x80mm. At 20-30 mm/s, it took approximately two hours to print. We kept the design as simple as possible for easy printing. By utilizing vase-mode in our print settings, we avoided the annoying layer-change zipper-line. For added strength and optimal transparency, we chose to 3D-print the Candy Bowl using Taulman's PETT t-glase filament.
