Stacking box

cults3d

Think inside the box, you can never have too many boxes. Print a few of your own stacking boxes to keep your things in order, whether they're screws, nuts, bolts, toys or other miscellaneous items. Just like our Candy Bowl, we designed this box specifically for testing 3D-prints with large-bore nozzles. The result is a semi-transparent box 3D-printed at 0.8mm layer height with a 1.0 mm nozzle. Even though it's possible to print this box at higher speeds, we kept it down to achieve a high-gloss shiny surface along with a higher quality print. This shows very well in the two attached pictures, with the lower part printed at a higher speed than the top part. Not only will the result have a higher degree of transparency, but the print quality will also be much better since the plastic can be extruded and cooled down at a slower rate, which is necessary when using a larger size nozzle. The outer dimensions of the box are 120x120x80mm. At around 20-30 mm/s, it took less than two hours to print. We kept the geometry as simple as possible to make it easy to print. To get rid of the layer-change zipper-line, we used vase-mode in our print settings. To make the box strong and achieve optimal transparency, we 3D-printed the candy bowl using Taulman 3D t-glase (PETT) filament.
