Summary

27-09-2024: I've made a version 2 of the box. It prints faster, is stonger, no supports with printing, PiP lids and my opinion: it's even more beautifull…You can find it here: https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6780354

About this model:

The sequel to my earlier Luxurious Storage Box with Origami Folding Lid(s)

I have completely gone back to basics with the aim of creating the same effect but now with fully mechanical working parts.
So without bending single-layer flexible hinges, without spring constructions to secure the axles and without magnets to clamp.

Everything is 100% printable and much more robust.
The design is also more forgiving for less well-tuned printers and there is no need for a prescribed orientation for the print paths.

The hinges are integrated within the thickness of the lids and the box even contains a mechanical locking of the lids without spring parts.
