No lid, no clasp, nothing to pry, just a toucan that absolutely will not talk. Figuring out how it opens is genuinely satisfying (I've handed it to people who insisted it was solid plastic). And it's fully customizable: pick your colors, texture the beak, even engrave a name on it. Make one that's unmistakably yours.
Started as a clean abstract secret box, ended as a bird judging me from the desk. It doesn't open by force, it opens when it clicks, and that little "ohhh" moment is the whole reason it exists. You can also recolour every part and give the beak your own texture or text, so your toucan doesn't have to look like my toucan.
Swear I designed a normal minimalist box. Loaded orange and yellow filament, looked down, and a bird was judging me. Anyway he keeps secrets now. Won't open unless you figure out the trick, and the moment it clicks is stupidly satisfying.
A secret box with a hidden opening mechanism that I designed as an abstract shape. Then the color print made it a toucan. Fully parametric (resize it, recolour every part). Use it as stash box for a ring, cash, earplugs, a couple of pills or coins.
Went for something with a bit of drama: a full-roar Wampa with the claws reaching out. One of the most underrated creatures in the saga. Don't turn your back on the cave.
Went for something with a bit of drama: a full-roar Wampa with the claws reaching out. The layered fur texture is the star here. Left it mostly white since that's basically the natural Wampa look, just a few painted details to make the face pop.
Experimented with a minimal approach on this Hoth snow beast — left the fur its natural white and only hit the eyes, snout, teeth, gums and claw tips. Sometimes less paint on a white creature reads better than fully covering it. Curious what you'd have done differently.
The Hoth snow beast, arms out and jaws wide. White finish captures the creature look perfectly as-is and only the eyes, snout, teeth and claw tips got any paint. One of the most underrated creatures in the saga. Don't turn your back on the cave.
One of the saga's most iconic creatures: the Wampa that hung Luke upside down in its cave. Went with an arms-out, jaws-wide pose on a frozen crystal base. White works beautifully on its own; just a few painted accents on the eyes, teeth and claws.

The interesting problem was letting height, width and length vary independently while the locking geometry, clearances and part alignment stay exactly where they need to be. Asserts catch dimensions the mechanism physically can't fit into, rather than silently generating a broken box.
Lid and button decoration accept arbitrary SVGs or text, either engraved or emitted as separate inlay geometry for multicolour printing. There are exploded and cutaway preview modes, and each part can be exported on its own.

The box is parametric, so you set the internal size to whatever you're storing, or pick a preset. Lid takes your own SVG or text, engraved or as a flush inlay, and the buttons take artwork too. Every part can be a different colour.
Two small springs are the only non-printed parts. Everything else prints without supports and goes together in a couple of minutes.

The lid sits flush with nothing to grab. That's the point.
You can resize the inside for dice, cards, keys, whatever, and the lid and buttons take your own SVGs or text, either engraved or as flush multicolour inlays.
Prints easily and assembles quickly.

Another one for the cantina shelf. Maclunkey.
Small enough to sit next to the keyboard, mean enough to look like he's about to make a very bad decision.
Greedo joins the collection. The crest texture is oddly satisfying up close.
