Roxy Iris Box

[Roxy]

Hi everybody! This is my first post on 3dprintboard.com! I liked the Iris boxes I found on Thingiverse, but I wanted to make some changes. I wanted:

• a thicker (and stronger) box.
• to make it have lettering on the leaves
• change the speed at which the leaves open (so they open easier)
• change and simplify the way the door mechanism mounts to the box

So... I reverse engineered the design at: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:140048 And now I have source code to print a 'Roxy Iris Box' ! Attached are both the source and the .STL files. The source is included so you will be able to make changes and recompile. (You will need to hunt down a copy of the font.dxf and put that in the same directory as the Roxy_Iris_Box.SCAD file. I cant attach a binary file!)

If you choose to build this, you need 5 STAINLESS PHILLIPS PAN HEAD SCREWS 4/40 X 3/8" Type T-23. (It's easiest to get these on eBay but you might get something close enough at your local hardware store).
