Small box I made for my partner. She wanted something small but “will not explode if I drop it”. She also wanted a custom profile in the bottom of the box to sort beads, if you are interested in this I will be posting the bottom plates soon. Here is the result. This box has a spring-loaded clip and hinge to make a secure lock while being easy to open and close. I will soon be adding bigger versions of this box, as well gridfinity compatibility. Boost MeBoosts help me buy filament for more projects. Any other engagement helps me out too.Non 3d Printed PartsAll the parts you need can be found on MakerSupply and are listed in the BoM below. I have included some alternative options here. Note you can build this without the 2x torsion springs, or the 10mm compression spring. If you exclude these parts then the lid will not spring open and you can lift it by hand. 2X Torsion Spring: I use 180 degree springs from amazon. Look for 0.4-0.6mm wire, 3-6 turns, and a 5mm outer diameter. 90 degree
