About this model
This is the same item as hippiegunnut's tweaked very slightly with an optional lid added. -- UPDATE 4/13/2013 -- I added a second type of box: now you can use a sliding lid. Prints nicely, with a very steep angle in the lip so no overhang problems. I'm using these as chess boxes, card deck boxes, screw sorters, etc. Still fully parametric, of course. -- UPDATE 5/6/2013 -- Okay, finding a lot of uses for this recently. :) I added a parameter to include a coin slot in the lid. Now it's a divided piggy bank too! (My 8-year-old son uses it to handle savings, etc. separately.)
