I really like the mechanism of the Impossible?? to open gift box by user 3d_Matthias at Thingiverse. However, I had different magnets at hand and needed a box of different size.I made this model from scratch, but since it's basically a copy of 3d_Matthias' design I still mark it as a remix.Besides the printed parts this model requires a 10mm steel ball and a 10mm x 2mm disc magnet.How the box worksWhile the outside of the box looks like it's interlocked by dove tails that seem impossible to disassemble, you can in fact slide it open diagonally. But there's another catch: there's a steel ball held in place by a magnet right in the sheer line between the halves, which locks them in place. To unlock the box you need to slam it into your hand which detaches the ball from the magnet giving you the chance to slide the box open.PrintingSupports: noneLayer height: 0.1mm for a nice finish of the side walls, 0.2mm first layerPerimeters: 2-3Other: Use ironing on the contact su
