About this model
Pretty much the same box design I uploaded before, except this one has rounded corners. This makes the box feel better in your hand and you don't get gouged if you need to carry it around in your pocket. You can vary the radius of the corner from about 0.1 mm up to around 10mm. Enjoy!
