You should check with your slicer how the rounded bottom will print.
I needed a small box (20mmx20mm) and had to make this rounding quite small or the slicer would generate a weak bridge line. That, in turn, makes the whole bottom weak.
The model needs a (partial?) chamfer to really fix this minor problem.
Other than that it is a great model!
Thank you @salfter for sharing it! (edited)
I love these little Boxes. Quick print and cames out great in all sizes I want. Thank you!
Have a shelf attached to the door and wanted a container for protein bars. Printed in clear PETG without a lid and it works great.
Printed with 0.8 mm nozzle and 0.32 mm layer height with transparent PLA. Perfect to divide big boxes or use independently.
I cant see anything in openscad even if I change the parameters.
@qqcs_168824 You need to uncomment one of these lines near the top to render the selected object:
```
// body();
// lid();
```
This is what I was looking for: A simple box with a lid that prints in vase mode, since that leads to the best results, even when printed fast.
I like to print this with 0.8mm extrusion width, which is absolutely no problem even with a 0.4mm nozzle. That way it is more sturdy. Set the take_in parameter in the scad file to 0.8mm to get a nice fit with the lid.
To make it even more more pretty I sometimes use 0.1mm layer height. (edited)
