Mechanical 40-Quarter Dispenser

A fully mechanical, gravity-fed coin magazine tailored for standard U.S. quarters. Designed to slip into a pool cue bag, it stores a full $10 roll vertically and cleanly dispenses exactly $1 (four quarters) per cycle into the palm of the hand. The mechanism relies on a two-stage sliding escapement. In the resting position, the bottom four coins sit perfectly flush inside the 7.2mm-thick slider pocket. When the thumb tab is pulled outward, a chamfered ramp on the top trailing edge of the pocket catches the fifth quarter and guides it smoothly onto the solid tail of the slider, suspending the rest of the stack. Once the pocket aligns with the drop chute at full extension, the isolated four quarters fall through. A captive printed pin mounted from the base runs in an internal track on the slider, acting as a hard travel limit for both the pull and return strokes. Remix & Tuning Hooks Threaded Cap: The top of the magazine tube now features a coarse 4mm-pitch thread, securing the cap firmly for travel. Magazine Height: The tube is dimensioned at 75mm to easily clear forty 1.75mm-thick quarters. Snip the cylinder height in the code to make a shorter 20-coin version. Coin Bore: Currently 25.2mm to allow 0.47mm radial clearance for a 24.26mm quarter. Tweak this offset for other currencies or tokens. Slider Thickness: The exact 7.2mm thickness dictates the dispense count (four coins). Scaling this Z-dimension alters how many coins drop per pull. Tolerances: The slider track relies on a 28.5mm bridge in the main body. If your printer sags on bridges, the slider can be sanded lightly, or the track height (7.6mm) can be nudged up.

Side-Pinned 40-Quarter Dispenser

What it's for A fully mechanical, gravity-fed coin magazine tailored for standard U.S. quarters. It stores a full $10 roll vertically and dispenses exactly $1 (four quarters) per cycle into the palm of the hand. The mechanism relies on a two-stage sliding escapement, now utilizing a side-mounted limit pin to ensure the coin path remains entirely unobstructed during travel. Dimensions Overall Envelope (Dispenser): 34 × 56 × 75 mm (when closed) Slider Thickness: 7.2 mm Coin Bore: 25.2 mm (optimized for 24.26 mm quarters) Assembly The main body, slider, cap, and limit pin print separately without supports. Insert the slider into the main body track, align the side slot with the right-hand hole on the body, and push the limit pin flush into the side countersink to capture the mechanism. Remix ideas Threaded Cap: The top of the magazine tube features a coarse 4mm-pitch thread. Alter the tube height to make a shorter 20-coin version. Coin Bore: Tweak the internal offset diameter for other currencies or custom arcade tokens. Slider Thickness: Scaling the Z-dimension alters how many coins drop per pull (currently dialed for exactly four 1.75 mm thick quarters).

DropCyl — Rotary Quarter Dispenser

DropCyl is a fully mechanical, gravity-fed coin magazine tailored for standard U.S. quarters. Designed to store a full $10 roll vertically, it now dispenses exactly $1 (four quarters) per cycle with a quick twist of the ribbed rotary drum. The iconic 8-ball viewing window punches cleanly through both sides, letting you check your count at a glance while keeping the footprint extremely compact. Features Rotary Drum Action: A reliable half-turn escapement that isolates and drops exactly four coins at a time. Ergonomic Shell: Aggressive edge rounding on the base block and cap makes it comfortable to grip and slip into a bag. Dual Windows: The signature 8-ball cutout is fully symmetrical, meaning you can check the magazine from any angle. Travel Cap: A robust coarse-thread cap locks the stack down so it won't spill in transit. Print Notes Print the main body and cap standing upright. The rotary drum should be printed flat on its base. The captive limit pin drops into the bottom of the track during final assembly.

Split 13-Inch Slip Box

A simple, cleanly split rectangular enclosure meeting a 3" × 1" × 13" outer footprint. Designed to print standing vertically on the build plate, the two halves meet in the middle with a sliding half-lap joint that handles alignment and friction. Remix Hooks The source relies on a few key parameters that dictate the fit and feel. If you pull this into a remix, check these first: Dimensions: Currently W = 76.2, D = 25.4, and L = 172.6 (for each half, achieving the 330.2mm total length). Tweak these to fit whatever board or gear you are housing. Wall: Set to 3mm. This gives enough meat for the half-lap cut (leaving 1.5mm walls at the joint) without feeling overly bulky. Clearance: The joint runs a comfortable 0.4mm tolerance. Tighten it to 0.2mm if your printer is dialed in and you want a semi-permanent friction fit, or loosen it if it binds. Lip Length: The 15mm overlap keeps the assembled box rigid, but dropping it to 8-10mm would save a bit of plastic if the contents don't flex.
