Gift Box #7 Print-in-Place

This model is restricted by licensing terms. 

Gift Box #7

This is the seventh version in a series gift boxes that may look the same on the outside but they each have a secret way of opening. This one uses a planetary gear stage! Turning the bow rotates the sun gear which results in the ring gear turning at a 3:1 ratio. There are external threads on the ring gear which engage with female threads on the box. The planetary gears are aesthetically pleasing but they actually work against you as it takes three more turns to unthread. It’s easy to cross thread, make sure the top is on flat before tightening.

This box is the same as Gift Box #7 but the top and bottom print entirely as one piece, so you don’t have to glue the bows and ribbons on.

Its roughly 100mm x 100m x 80mm tall. The top prints in place as one part, none of the parts require supports. I printed all the parts in the orientation the stl’s are provided in.

Printed on the Muldex rep-rap IDEX printer.

Note: Assembly model for reference only.

Other Gift Boxes You can find ALL the other gift boxes in the Puzzle Present Collection.

I've colourised this in Bambu Studio if you'd like me to send you the 3mf file to upload here?

I would not recommend printing it smaller.

I'm using Cura and Union Overlapping Volumes is ON, should I turn this off? My first print, the gears and inner circles are pretty much one piece. I tried sanding down the first layer and even using a hot utility knife to cut through but I couldn't get anything to turn. I'm trying different settings now but I noticed this one setting is on.

I figured it out. I didn't have to change that setting, but I did have to lower the bed temp and speed up the printing a bit. I did another print and it works wonderfully. Awesome design!

I'm not familiar with that command, sorry. I am not using Cura. Is it just the first layer? If so it could be because its too low.

Hi, do you print the cover without any type of support?

3D Printing World
3dprintingworld

Turn them off, I guess. 😉 If your printer can bridge 1" it should be able to print it without supports.
