Box with Sliding Top

thingiverse

Create a personalized box with a sliding top, featuring a small catch mechanism. This versatile design allows for optional dividers, which can be adjusted using the customizer tool. The STL file produces a container suitable for holding four oblong pills; tailor its dimensions to your needs via the customizer. After printing and assembling the box, ensure a smooth-sliding lid by cleaning up the small slit on the underside of the top. If necessary, sand the lid edges slightly for a snug fit. For optimum performance, add a bit of folded paper towel or tissue in the bottom to prevent pills from rattling and turning to dust. Keep an eye on the overhang angle in the lid; it's recommended to maintain an angle below 45 degrees, as specified in the .scad file when using OpenSCAD. Share your creations with us for inspiration!
