Description

This “lump of coal” container has a twist-off-cap that reveals a secret inside compartment. Give something nice to the naughty people in your life!

The “loose” cap and container files are easy to open. Print the “tight” cap and container files if you want the lid harder to find and open.

Print the “cap” and “container” files as oriented with the textured surfaces down. Raise the objects 3mm off the build plate and add supports underneath. Cura Tree supports work well. The bottom surface will be a bit messy. You could clean it up with a file, or just leave it messy because it is, after all, a lump of coal.

Dave, Thank you for sharing this box. It provided a good laugh for everyone as my wife opened her gift of a gold bracelet for Christmas. It took her a while to figure it out too which was fun. Again, thanks for sharing. Preston

Great little box! I had a ton of trouble printing with the box face up, but then again my filament is really old. I managed to get some good prints when inverting the objects, and I didn't even need supports for the container's inside section since it was small.
