A small riddle that show interesting capabilities of 3D printing.
Inside is a 75xD10 mm box for a congratulation letter / important note / whatever.
Print instructions
You need two nuts and each screw once (the nuts are the same, the screws aren't).
Choose colors you like. For this I added the STL files.
For you it's the riddle to mount them, for the person you give it to solve it :)
I don't want to post a how to mount/dismount here, because of reasons. If you need it, send me a message.
You can speed up printing by printing both screws into the same color.
After the print and cleaning move the screws into each other to check if the thread align properly (it should make a descend click at the final position).
Check the thread of the screws and nuts before mounting. They have a clearance of 0,1 mm and are very sensitive to small printing errors or inaccurate printing.
Make sure to have the right side of the nut upside before mounting. There is a difference!
Edit 05.01.2021: Change gcode to make screws one color and nuts another, change stl of screw 1 for easier fit into screw heat of screw 2
