I created the ultimate Halloween decoration — a 3D printed mimic treasure chest inspired by Dungeons & Dragons and a touch of Frieren. The chest prints in multiple pieces and features a tongue that flips out when you open it!

The print orientation of certain parts is crucial to get right, so I’ve included my .3mf file to help if needed.

  • Lid: I recommend printing it on its side. This orientation allows the teeth holes to print cleanly without interference. Use tree supports on the top half of the lid, but avoid supports inside the teeth holes to make assembly easier.
  • Base: I used my slicer’s default normal supports and had no issues.
  • Teeth: Print them vertically with tree supports underneath.
  • Everything else should print fine without supports.

You’ll need three hinges (only one STL is provided—just copy it). Grooves are included in both the lid and base for a proper hinge fit.

The top teeth each have a unique position. If they’re not placed correctly, the mouth may not close properly. To help with this, I created a labeling system that matches each tooth STL file name to its correct position. Refer to the label guide in the photos for details, and feel free to message me with any questions!
