  1. This gift has been given, so here's what was inside. A Leatherman and a bit set inside a Pelican 1010 micro case. Spousey said Chirpy would like a gold box better than the rainbow.

    There's a better pic of the box top artwork upthread in 🧵 25.

    The inner insert is based on a model I found on Printables that doesn't fit.

  2. Macarons! Matte PLA, fuzzy skin, three piece construction, two different sizes. And a box/tray for them. Inside surface quality isn't great, but it'll do.

    We'll put a small gift inside each macaron. Spousey wants to mix the big ones in with edible macarons in another box.

    I reused the screw top I developed for a desiccant jar (the white cylinders in the background).

  3. I printed another generic gift box, this time in a more generic color.

  4. This is for Chirpy. It's another ombré filament, silk this time. The name "tag" is two separate SVG files applied in the slicer. The little bird and the lettering are one SVG, and the magenta ink stroke is the other. For the latter, I just drew a Bézier curve in Inkscape and gave it a fat stroke.

    The bottom of the box has a chamfer the same size as the top. It cuts through both the lid and the box bottom.

    This box will return.

  5. Next, a gift box twofer.

    Long box is long.

    The ombré box has octagram spiral infill in one corner, sort of looking like a star sticker. I did that by modeling an octagram, loading it into the slicer as a modifier, and changing the infill in that region.

    EDIT: attach the image.

  6. Warped or not, the box works and looks pretty good in sparkly PLA. IMO.

    I pronounce this project finished.

  11. I'm printing the air hockey surface tonight. The build surface is taped down, and the first layer is underway. (Ignore the smeared ink. That's from an inkjet, and it's on the underside of the transparency.)

    Air hockey tables have a lot of holes.

  12. Oh, boy! It's a new build thread! Follow or mute hashtag #AirHockeyKit

    At 3DPrintopia in September I joined PrintKits. It's a 3D printing mystery-kit-of-the-month club. They let me pick my first kit non-mysteriously at the show, and Spousey really wanted the air hockey table.

    Here are the print files. The print kit includes all the vitamins. (Fans, battery holder, etc.)
