Nice idea, I used a 40°C one. I'm thinking about going down a bit because it's late.

Thank you for the fix! Better design even.

is it possible to get the .f3d file if you have one? would like to resize for 4x2 magnets and possibly the ridge if I can figure it out!

I printed the version with the "ridge", but the ridge is too wide to fit onto the HEPA-part. It fits into the channel on the bottom but not on top. So the ridge has to be smaller.
The photo of the turquoise thermostat lid shows that the ridge is wider than the embossment on the original lid (grey).
I'll reprint it without the ridge.
Nevertheless: Thank you for sharing It. You saved me a lot of time.

@schiko, bummer! Sorry you had to print two. I didn’t even print the one with the ridge because I was happy enough with the prototype without the ridge. I had reservations about the shape files I found (and used as a starting point) as the mating bits didn’t seem to match the printed models of the v2 bento box I had in my hands (but my spatial awareness isn’t stellar). I’ll remove the ridge files. Thanks for letting us know.
…and yeah, I’m still relearning CAD after 20 years of not using it and this probably took me 5-6 hours to model and several prototypes. Glad I could contribute to help others.
