Set the wayback machine to a few months ago and I was hyper focused on the Key to Hamunaptra. I wasn't able to get a working model with a FDM printer that has a locking lid but I was able to make this version which does have interlocking leaves and the actual art from the movie prop! This version is the same dimensions as the movie prop but doesn't work the same as I used a central post in order to keep the leaves level. Print with a 0.4noz at 0.2 Quality settings. See assembly image for how it goes together. 

  • The body and hinge need no supports
  • The leaves are pre-arranged for their best print sides
  • I used coat hanger wire cut into pieces and fed the wire through the hinge / leaves from the bottom. Once assembled it can be glued to the body.
  • Before gluing the top leaves set them up to see how they go together. 

I hope you enjoy this as much as I had making them. Also if you want to buy a working version check out Paul Pape as he makes and sells them :D
