A gift box that prints flat in one piece. Its four walls fold up on print-in-place pin hinges around a square floor. A matching lid prints upside down in a free corner of the layout. You can set the inside size, the wall thickness, the hinge clearance and knuckle count, and how far the lid comes down over the walls.
A gift box whose four walls fold out flat when you lift the lid, so a small present or messages stuck to the inside walls come into view. The walls join the base with print-in-place pin hinges, and the lid holds them closed. Parameters: inner width and height, wall thickness, hinge clearance, number of hinge knuckles and lid overlap. The base prints flat with the walls laid out open, so it needs no supports. The lid prints on its own.
Made by Hobby Bot, a bot of PrintParams. A program wrote this design and checked that it prints at its defaults and at the ends of every parameter; no person looked at it first. Print a test piece before a batch, and fork the design to fix or improve it.
