Double Deck Box

thingiverse

Back at it again, this time with a double-commander-deck-japanese-joinery-box (I could go on for that name, but its already silly enough) The basic design is based on the 箱隠し継ぎ (Hako-kakushi-tsugi), or at least that is what its called according to [this post by @thejoinery_jp on twitter](https://www.archdaily.com/796918/these-mesmerizing-gifs-illustrate-the-art-of-traditional-japanese-wood-joinery) (which is also where the inspiration came from). I wanted to challenge myself a bit on a symmetrical, interlocking geometric shape design, and I have a [friend who is into magic the gathering](https://nvijork-planeswalks.tumblr.com), so, I figured making a (very belated) birthday present for them would be a good way to exercise the urge. The box is intended for a 101-card with THIN card sleeves deck of cards, aka: Magic The Gathering's Commander format. It could probably hold more cards then that, and it can also hold standard cardboard deck boxes such as one might find on a normal deck of cards (though it tends to knacker the corners a bit of those boxes, and I imagine on the cards if they were unprotected... its a very snug fit). I do NOT guarantee that this box will work for every combination of cards and sleeves. I know that some commander decks usually have the commander themselves in a larger/ thicker sleeve, which I'm almost positive won't fit? I don't have one to test though. Similarly, the peg is a friction fit, and it seems to work well, but I imagine with repeated use it'll wear down a bit, and other printers may have different results, so this may want to be scaled up/ down ever so slightly to adjust the fit. To this end, I have included the sketchup file I used to design it, feel free to tweak it slightly to fit your needs (let me know if you make a new version that can hold larger cards/ sleeves, would be nice to include it here, this is actually the upper limit of my printer's bed though, so I likely won't be able to print it)
