Emoji Parametric Mini Container

Parametric Emoji Container (Support-Free Printing)

This project allows you to create customized threaded containers decorated with emoji patterns. The design has been optimized so that both the base and the lid can be printed without the need for supports, using an inverted thread geometry.

Key Features

- Zero Overhang Thread: The male thread is at the top of the base and the female thread is inside the lid, allowing for a clean bottom-up print.
- Automatic Emoji Pattern: Emojis are perfectly distributed around the cylinder in configurable rows and columns.
- Honeycomb Effect: Option to alternate row rotation for a more organic and filled look.
- Clearance Fit System: Includes a clearance adjustment to ensure the lid screws on smoothly right after printing.
- Keychain Support: Option to add a robust loop on the top of the lid for carrying.
