This mechanical Pill organizer box can help store even some of your larger pills for a convenient and labeled AM-PM cycle. This design uses absolutely no supports whatsoever in order to provide you the most user friendly experience in printing with ease. Simply print the components and throw them together for a super cool lever action dispenser with a satisfying click to its internal ratcheting mechanism! No need to remove components or disassemble this box for refills, simply open the lid and replenish your next weeks dosages. Stands upright for easy storage in your cupboard or bathroom medicine cabinet. Continue reading below for any updates and Enjoy!

EDIT 1: Added a pill fit tester so you can see if your amount of pills fit in the very quick spiral vase print then that is how much volume each section has available. Many people cant quite guage how much room each section has so this seems like it will help everyone out if they arent sure and dont want to waste time printing the whole thing. Happy Printing!

EDIT 2:

•Added V2 box which fixes empty spaces inside the box which could potentially jam smaller pills inside when using.

•Added multiple language labeled drums! English, Spanish, Polish, German, French  and now Romanian! If there's a language you'd love to see included then drop me a DM!

EDIT 3:

•Some people seem to have some fitment issues with the inner rotating drum. For this I'm sorry and looking at my model that specific part has ~0.15mm Radial tolerance (Tol.= 114.3mm - 114mm / 2 = 0.15mm Radial Tol.) which for some printers can become too tight. For this I recommend printing everything else the same but for the center drum, print it at 99.5% scale should put the drum around 113.5mm, adding another 0.25mm radial tolerance if your printer seems to print too tight which should solve that issue of fitment.

•Second is more of a simple sizing request for some. For everyone who loves the design but thinks its a little on the small side for the amount or size of pills they need to take, I have found a solution in the very easy form of scaling the model! For every component except the center drum, you will want to scale up from 100% to 120%. The main case will need to be rotated 45° then upscaled and all others small components can just be upscaled to 120% as they currently sit. The center drum in order to keep it from being too tight, scale it up only to 119.75%. That should be able to then hold up to six (27mm L x 10mmØ pills) in every section and still be under 6" tall. If you upscale it to 120% and the mechanism doesnt seem to be clicking the drum into place that is because the tolerance of the ratchet wheel under the drum will now have a little slack in it. To solve this, place a small piece of electrical tape or scotch tape on one or two faces of the sqaure peg on the base until the ratchet sprocket has no wiggle room shown below.

EDIT 4: Some people gave feedback that their prints were too tight of tolerance and the center drum would not be able to spin or the main hinge was binded and would snap at the base when trying to break it free. Another issue of individuals that need to take smaller pills or chalk like pills would have them break and or become caught in the lever arm above the opening section. To solve these issues I have opened up the tolerance for both the drum section and beefed up the hinge of the main box as well as added a fin section that covers the lever arm allowing the pill section to be fully covered allowing no space for pills to get caught between. The only difference is with the assembly which will require a small drop of superglue at the three pin locations for the two alignment slots and the central lever pin cavities. Because few of these instances have occured, the V2 will remain available for people to download and print but if you are interested in a bulkier hinge, looser toleranced and no risk at all of pills getting caught at the open ended section then V3 is for you. Im always open to feedback and Italian labeled drum is soon to come for this edit #4!

ASSEMBLY INSTRUCTIONS: Be sure your parts are free and clear of wispy strings and your machine/filament is properly calibrated for accurate printing. These models are meant to assembly together with relative ease and tolerances but improper printing/old filament can cause tolerances to seem tight. Make sure the notch mark on the Drum-Lock ring is facing the front pill opening of the box or else the ratcheting mechanism will not line up properly.

(V2 Assembly):May or may not have some tight fit issues on case by case basis and potential for pill to get grabbed by the lever arm.

(V3 Assembly)

!CAUTION!…Be sure to keep away from children as we all must remember that these are still for pill/medication storage and must be treated as such regardless of how cool 3D printing their storage is. Be safe and happy printing!
