Customization

Case Options

  • Plain Case
  • Numbered Case (multicolor printer)

Magnets

Add as few or as many magnets as you want for a weaker or stronger lid connection.

Hardware

Printing

  • All parts can be printed without supports.
  • Add a brim if curling or bed adhesion is an issue.
  • Hide print seams inside the box.

Assembly

  • Glue magnets into the lid - orient all magnets in the same direction so that you can connect the lid without finding a specific rotation.
