Bring mechanical motion to your organization with the Gear Lid Box. Designed with precision gear-driven side panels, opening the box rotates the integrated gear mechanism smoothly. This model features a 3” width and 1.75” height, and is available in three distinct lengths: 5”, 5.5”, and 6”.

Assembly Instructions
1. Lid Assembly:
Insert alignment pins into gears (requires 8 total alignment pins).
Ensure you match the correct gears to the correct side of the lid.
The alignment peg holes on the gears are spaced slightly different on each side to make orientation foolproof.
Glue the lid and side gears together securely (repeat for both sides x2).
2. Box Assembly:
Test-fit the hinge pins into the box housing.
Pins should form a tight friction fit into the gears, but rotate with a smooth, loose fit into the box body.
Lightly sand contact surfaces if there is too much friction.
Place the completed lid assembly onto the box and insert the 4 hinge pins to lock it into place.
Don't need quite that much room!
