Parameterized Snap Closed Box
Please support Sislar by Liking/Boosting their Print on Thingiverse.
Yes another box, but I couldn't find one that completely filled my needs.
Features:
- Honeycomb or Spiderweb mesh so that you can see what is inside without opening it. Or you can have a solid lid.
- Snaps tight, squeeze the sides to open
- No external hinges so the parameters will be the exact outside dimensions, good for stacking and for storing board game bits inside the orginal box.
V3:
I fixed the tight lid issue, amazing what 0.2mm can mean.
Changed the height parameter to include the lid so the dimensions now what you enter is exactly the size of the closed box.
Beveled the tabs for easier printing.
V4:
Wow had an error that the height was 1.5 higher than specified over 1000 downloads and no one noticed. Well that is fixed all dimensions entered should be the final result.
Added 2 additional patterns for the lid a diamond lattice and one I'm calling fancy its actually a square grid of overlapping circles. enjoy,
Note: I created a new box with a sliding lid that latches into place as well. If you prefer that to the snap on

I have few re-usable items I've used in several of my inserts. I made them available on the Thingiverse customizer so you can create what you need. This is My Box with a snap on lid. Good for holding all of one player's pieces. You squeeze the sides to release the lid. The lids have a choice of different patterns
