The hidden latching mechanism will only unlock if you discover the twisting top section.
This is a re-upload of an older design that adds new pumpkin faces and parts. The older design has been removed.
Customization
Choose between 2 base designs (smile or plain)
Choose between 4 ring designs ("Happy Halloween", “Trick or Treat”, “Allergen Free” or plain)
Printing
- No supports are needed if all parts are properly aligned on the bed.
- If using rings with text, swap out the color a few layers in to really make the text easier to read.
Assembly
Assembly is the same as the original Twist Lock Trick Box. Watch this video for the complete process.
Make sure to pre-tension the spring by one gear tooth
This will assure that the latches have a strong hold on the base. This is also necessary for the alignment of some toppers.
Make sure to glue the spring and topper
If you do not fully secure these parts, the mechanism may become detached while in a locked state. I recommend using either super glue or 3D Gloop!, but hot glue can work as well. Be careful not to glue the latches in place.
