Hearty Heart Box is a dual hinged, print in place, support free gift box offered in multiple sizes and tolerances.
I’ve provided 3 sizes at a .2mm tolerance gap as well as 3 tolerance fit options (.2mm, .3mm & .4mm) of the large size with matching hinge tests. The large one is sized to hold a 25mm (1”) truffle.*
Excessive print testing notes:
Definitely run the quick hinge test first to get the best tolerance gap for your printer.
The geometry should allow you to print with no supports, but my printers got a little messy in the top corners. Two easy fixes:
- Add wall thickness and clean up the little rubble after print.
- Support the upper inner corners a little, but still dodge support around the hinges.
*Ferrero Rocher (candy in the picture) is a little larger than the box and props the lid open nicely. Lindt truffles or smaller are the way to go for a closed box.
