I got this neat Welly's travel pack of bandages and antibiotic (I hurt myself a lot). It came in a really neat travel tin box. However, airport security really doesn't like you having tin boxes in your bag since they can't see through them with their scanner. This where I designed a similar plastic box, so I can safely chuck it in my bag!

Print instructions

This model was designed to be printed with a standard 0.4mm nozzle, though it will work with a 0.6mm or 0.8mm nozzle as well, so everyone can print one!

Here are some recommended settings and information about the design, to help you get the best print:

Spiral vase mode / Spiralize outer contour: turn this on, this is how the whole magic works
Line Width: 0.8mm (this is important, and yes, you can do it with a 0.4mm nozzle)
Layer Height: 0.3mm (not necessarily required, but anything more and the curves don't work as well)
Bottom Thickness / Bottom Layers: 1.5mm (e.g. 5 layers at 0.3mm layer height) (this is important to get the best quality bottom with this model)
Wall speed: 30mm/s (you are pushing a lot of plastic, so a slower speed is best, though if you are confident in your hot end you can go faster)
Printing Temperature: +10 to +15 degrees hotter than your usual temperature (for example, I usually print PLA at 200, but print this model at 210)
Flow: 110% (because why not)
Ironing: turn this on (it is definitely not required, but you get a better surface quality on the inside surface\u2026 you can also turn this off to save 10 minutes if you prefer)
- Ironing Line Spacing: 0.4mm (half of the line width should be plenty)
- Ironing Speed: 40mm/s (maybe even faster if you are feeling wild)

Notes

The prints in the photos were printed in Voxelab Yellow PLA+ on a largely unmodified Elegoo Neptune 2 with a 0.4mm nozzle.

Also in the photos

To spice up the photos, I included one of my other models, a larger version of this box.
