Description

This model is a weekly pill box designed for 1 use per day. My wife couldn't find what she wanted online, so I made this and I hope it'll be helpful to someone else too :) I printed it in PLA and the result looked excellent, so I assume you won't have any issues printing this model.

It features:

7 independent chambers, 3cm x 1.5cm x 1cm, enough for a few pills
Day names on top and inside each door
Tight tolerances for a sturdy feeling
Textured side for better grip
Rounded chambers to easily grab pills
Low 1.5cm profile

If you liked this model, please consider boosting me :)

Any feedback is welcome! I was tempted to make a “2 times a day” version of this, so if you'd like one with the same design, i'd be happy do make one for you :)

Tollerances are a bit too tight. Printed fine but back tabs for lids kept snapping just trying to attach the lids. Printed in PLA matte for the main box.

Thanks for your feedback! I think this might be due to matte pla having lower layer adhesion compared to standard pla. I don't have matte pla at home, but I'll try to upload another print profile with more tolerances today if you wanna try 😊

@skw_

Replying to @skw_ :

I uploaded a new print profile that pushes the inner faces of the back tabs 0.2mm apart from each other ✅

@abrams0617

Replying to @skw_ :

I might try both. For science.

I really like the shape of this print, but unfortunately 3 of the hinges broke when trying to attach the lids.

@skw_

Hey! Which kind of plastic did you use for this print ? Other people have reported that due to the tight tolerances, PLA matte and PETG might not work. I've added a profile with higher tolerances for pla matte, but that might not be enough for petg though

Nice design but I printed with PETG and I think the stiffness is a bit much for the hinges. They open and close but when clicked closed the back edge of the lid pops out of the clips.
