I painted the model in Bambu studio and printed it on my X1C using the AMS, I scaled it up to 125% and it turned out great! I did have to scale the drawer down 2% to get it to fit. The container fits perfectly on my window sill. I use it to hold all of my strings, picks, and my slides. I used to have everything just sitting loosely on my window sill so this really helped clean it up. I think I'm going to print the Fender logo and glue it to the front. Thanks for the cool print!

Printed in Overture PETG. Really struggled how to attempt the lid, settled on it's back face with 5mm spaced support enforcers for the interior and flanges. Didn't work out great as the support buckled on the way up and the whole lid warped leaving gaps in the assembly, but that was my own fault for picking those settings.
Overall, really happy with the design and how it turned out. If I did it again would look at adding ribs or internal chamfers to the lid, or print on the top and bite the bullet on cleaning the front. And maybe tweak tolerances on the drawer as it's fit is just a hair tight for my tastes.
Note, the print requires the drawer to be installed otherwise there's a gap in the front.
Thanks @jmirage! (edited)
