Gift Box #15

This is the fifteenth gift box gift box in a series of gift boxes that may all look the same on the outside but each has a different secret way of opening. 

This is my first two step puzzle! First you have to discover the hidden key which is stuck in a labyrinth mase. Once you free the key, you must find the hidden keyhole in order to unlatch the top. Its roughly 100mm x 100m x 80mm tall.

WARNING You will need to use PTFE Lubricate Spray(aff) like I did or some other type of lubricant to reduce the cam friction so the top will unlock properly. See more information below.

Print Instructions

The top prints in place as one part, none of the parts require supports. The bow and ribbons are printed separately and glued on. I printed all the parts in the orientation provided. I prefer the vertical orientation for the ribbons for a smoother surface finish.  I added helper pads to them to keep them stable during printing. I printed everything at .2 layer heights but the box could definitely be printed at a larger layer height without issue. I added helper pads to them to keep them stable during printing. For best results use a .4mm nozzle. 

Assembly 

The moving bottom ribbon that covers the keyhole slides on a grove and locks into position without glue. The other three faux bottom ribbons are glued on. The keyhole/catch/sprint slides onto the dovetail slot behind the keyhole. There is a holder on the other side of the box to secure the end of the spring, its tapered so it locks as you push it into position. The top prints in place as one part. In order to get it to move more freely, I used PTFE Lubricate Spray(aff). It does have a smell, which I actually like.. If you use as little as possible and leave the top off for a few days the smell will go away but it will till stay lubricated. Other lubricants may work but I have not tired.

I used Gorilla Glue (aff.) for gluing on the ribbons.  Put the glue in the middle and let it naturally spread out. If you don’t already own as set of these clamps (aff.) you should pick them up, they really help with gluing the ribbons on.
