What it's for A miniature storage box with a slip-fit lid, perfectly sized for keeping tiny components, screws, or small parts securely contained.

A robust, two-piece deck box built for transport and easy access. Designed to hold 100 double-sleeved 63x88mm trading cards, it features a snug snap-fit lid to prevent spills in your bag.

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.
AutoBrush Head Travel Case
A protective travel shell explicitly shaped to match the AutoBrush U-shaped head without excess bulk. There's nothing more frustrating than opening your travel bag to find your toothbrush head snagged on something and exposed to the bottom of your wash bag. This clamshell encloses the head securely with mechanical latches tucked firmly into the straight side edges so they don't catch on anything. Fit & Print Details Hinge: Integrates a full-length structural hinge pin printed separately for maximum mechanical strength. Latch Mechanics: Dual snap latches cross the mating seam, biting tightly to keep the case closed when dropped. Support Requirement: Flat base layout means this case prints reliably with no supports and zero overhang spaghetti.

Positive Closure: Features a mechanical snap-tab latch for secure closing and a separate 3D-printable hinge pin. Handle Clearance: A clean 5×5 mm center opening allows the case to shut around the brush head while it remains attached to the toothbrush handle. Internal Standoffs: Four internal bumps securely locate the brush head without crushing the bristles.
