Description

I present to you, a very spiky egg container.

I've been experimenting with using threads and getting the tolerance right on my printer, the first time you twist the two egg halves together it will be a bit stiff but after that it it should go together smoothly. Let me know if this is not the case for you. It can be scaled up with no issues.

Great for storing snacks, and because of the spikes it can be hidden in bushes and trees much easier than a round egg. Be warned though, it is surprisingly spiky,

Stepping on it hurts more than Lego but less than a mine. Initially the thread was way too tight and I had to use quite a bit of force to screw it together, using two tea towels was the only way to avoid destroying my hands on the spikes. I just had a look at your Minecraft egg, I really like the texture. Did you model it layer by layer or use a tool to create the blocks?

Replying to @TippyTaplin :

what I did was I just found someone on Thingiverse that made the design I wanted and made it the way I wanted and to decide on the right way to make the screw part was the hardest I wanted something easy to print but also a good fit so I did a thick and long one lined thread and it worked perfectly. also you should name your model EasterEggSpikeWeapon/foot killer
