Summary

Here is my design of a little treasure chest.

Inspired by: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4652955
But it was lacking a bit of detail... so i thought why not model a new chest with a latch and add a padlock?

For assembly you will have to sand the parts for best fitment, aswell as use screws and glue to hold it all together.

Here is the link for my Padlock that you can see in the pictures: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4733670

Number of parts to print:
1x Bottom_Frame_Front
1x Bottom_Frame_Rear
2x Bottom_Frame_Side
1x Top_Mainframe
2x Top_Frame_Side
1x Top_Frame_Middle
1x MainBody
1x Latch
31x Screwhead_Cap

Non-Printed Parts:
2x 1,25x46mm metal rods (or nails) for the rear hinges
1x 1,25x30mm metal rods (or nails) for the latch hinge
You could also drill the hinges with 2mm drill bit and use 1,75mm filament as rods for the hinges, but i had these metal rods laying around.
17x M3 Screws were used. i used an assortment of lengths from 6mm to 12mm
6x M3 Nuts

I recommend printing the parts in their original position.
Use supports for Top_Frame_Middle and Bottom_Frame_Rear
Use Raft for Top_Wood
To print the 31 Screwhead_Cap i used two perimeters with no infill and no top & bottom layers. Then i added a modifier after 1,6mm in Z-direction with 1 perimeter and 100% infill. This made the caps fit flush over the screwheads to the frame.

Edit:

added:
Bottom_Frame_Front_V2
Bottom_Frame_Side_V2
Bottom_Frame_Rear_V2

These models have the Screwhead_Cap models integrated where there are no screws used. So now you have to print only 17 Screwhead_Cap
