About the Christmas Shaped Box

A Christmas gift box in the shape of a gingerbread man, tree, star, bauble, stocking, snowman, heart, present or bell, with a drop-in lid. The lid’s icing, details and a name are inlaid in a second colour: the box is part of the present.

Questions

What fits inside?

At the starting size, sweets, jewellery or a small gift. Every size is a setting, so make it as big as the present.

What size is it?

About 11.1 × 11.8 × 4 cm (width × depth × height), one piece at the starting settings. Every size is a setting, so make it as big or small as you need.

Do I need a multi-colour printer?

No. Print it in one colour, or in colours with a filament change: the Colours line under the 3D view says at which height to change. With an AMS or another multi-colour printer, the 3MF prints it in one go.

Which printers and slicers does it work with?

Any FDM printer. The STL opens in every slicer; the 3MF keeps the colours as separate parts in Bambu Studio, Orca Slicer, PrusaSlicer and Cura. Pick your printer in the designer to check it fits the plate.

Can I sell what I make?

On Pro and Ultimate you can sell the prints you make, for example on Etsy or at craft fairs. On Free and Maker, print it for yourself or give it as a gift. The STL and 3MF files themselves are never for sharing or selling.
