Blooming Reveal Box
The Blooming Reveal box, based on a submission by Mason W. Meo (me) to the annual COLLAB contest held by the philadelphia museum of art, is a 2 layered iris mechanism that is meant to “reveal” high value items, essentially like an ornate gift box. It achieves this reveal effect by “blooming” and “budding” like a flower, depending on how you rotate the secondary petal.
This is my OC, DO NOT STEAL
This is my oc, DO NOT STEAL. I'm all for renditions, I learned by working off other peoples models, but this device took me way too long to figure out and I'm not comfortable with anyone else claiming ownership. If you post a model based on my files, credit me! And if you are interested in selling my design or anything based on it, contact me.
Printing/Materials
Difficulty: Moderate
Filament: PETG and PLA both print fine, HTPLA is best for durability
Time: varies depending on size, but the large is around 16 hours
Print settings: Make sure you have supports and at least 1.6 wall thickness. Higher layer heights help with strength, I printed at .32
Screws: You need 10 A screws and 5 B screws, referenced in the chart. For example, you would need 10 4m 20mm screws and 5 4m 16mm screws for large size.

The shown size is large
