Description

Introducing the Brick Travel Case, your portable building companion that's ready to organize and inspire your creative adventures! At Ozarkexpeditions, we believe that imagination should never be limited by location. Whether you're at school, in the air traveling by plane, on a long road trip, or just need a fun way to organize your supplies, this is a fun build. That's why we've designed a rugged, brick-compatible travel case that lets you take your builds wherever you go. Besides being awesome at carrying your bricks, this can also be used to carry your school supplies, art supplies, lunch and more when you or your kids travel or attend school.


The Brick Travel Case is not your typical rugged storage box. With studded plates on the top and bottom exterior and interior surfaces, it's a versatile and interactive organizer that's compatible with your favorite building bricks. Now you can create, customize, and configure allowing you to be creative!

Printing & Assembly

All pieces are oriented in the print profiles for the best printing experience. I used smooth PEI plates, but any build plate should work fine for this build. We tested a few snap designs and this one appears to be the best design, but with that said, it may require a bit of force, but our designs prefer this to needing messy glue. Let us know how your build goes together and provide any feedback.

The first task is to attach the studded plate to one side of the box. Both plates are the same. First, we will walk through placing the connectors in the slots.
Start by taking one of the dog-bone style connectors and placing it at an angle into the slot.
Press down firmly and you will hear a snap once the dog-bone style connector is in place. It should push in with a little force, if needed take a scrap piece to help provide more area to push down.
Continue this for each of the connectors.
Now we will place the exterior baseplate on to the connectors.
Start by connecting one side and working your way around to each connector snapping it into place.
Ensure the pieces are firmly connected. Repeat the process for the other half of the box.
Now, to connect the halves of the boxes. Start by threading in the M3x25mm machined screws in the back of the box. This is designed to be a precise fit so that the hinges hold on strong to the bolt.
Add a washer and locking nut.
Continue the same process for the front of the box, using the M3x30mm machined screws. Now your new Brick Travel Box is ready to go!

Both are PLA. I used sunlu matte black and the green was gizmo dorks I believe. I just did another for a friend’s daughter in white and pink PLA.

prints great. holes for hinges need to be expanded slightly. broke off a tab and needed to use a Dremel to open them up a hair

Thanks for sharing photos of your build, those look like great color choices. Sorry to hear about the tabs. Can you confirm you used m3 machined screws? They need to be “threaded” in with a hex wrench by design to have a tight fit to ensure the halves of the box stay together well. we will take this into consideration though, thanks!

I "borrowed" m3 30mm bolts and washers and nuts from my aerospace job so I'm positive. maybe my tolerance were off tho.

Great model! Only complaint is the hinges that snap to the screws are really hard to close (assuming it will get easier with constant use though), other than that its an awesome simple print! Thanks! Filaments used: -ELEGOO Matte Black PLA -iSANMATE Matte Violet PLA

Thanks for the kind words, and we appreciate your boost! That is correct that it will get easier to close through use, so we always prefer to start with these a little tight compared to starting too loose. Cheers!

It is a shame that I did not receive any help with the problems I encountered with the connectors in my comment below, as there was an error in the downloads. However, after a little fiddling, I managed to get everything working and would like to share a picture of it. I even personalized the box. The camera angle makes the lettering appear slightly skewed. But that's just the way it is ;-)

Hello, thanks for sharing the photo and that looks super cool. Sorry about the issue with the downloads, I could not find a reason that the automated STL generator downloads from MW were missing certain pieces. They all appear in the 3MF file. I bet the box is going to get a lot of use and enjoyment so great work, cheers!

Thank you very much and I´m sorry... I read the automatic translation from German to englisch and it´s a bit hard. I never wrote so hard like it's a shame in German. That was the auto translation. I meant like it´s a bit sad :-)
