Print-in-place Money Chest

A small print-in-place chest with embedded hinges.

v8 has more space in the hinge. They both work fine on my printer.

Be sure to support the hinges as best you can as you break them free.

The chest uses 2, 5x2mm round magnets as a closure.

Notes:

I printed it without supports, but if you want a smooth surface on the inside of the chest, you could put supported just inside the chest.

It will work best with a 0.25mm layer height because the gap between the lid and the base is 0.25mm. Once printed, check to make sure the area around the hinges is clear before carefully splitting the lid free at one of the front corners. Having at least 3 shells helps too.
