Octo-box V2

Octo-box V2

Description

This is an upgraded version of my [Octo-box](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2479617) iris box. To open the box, twist the recessed handles in an anti-clockwise direction. No supports are required for the parts. I have made an [updated lid](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:4579118) for this box which hides the screws visible on the top of this design. I also have many more Iris box designs which you can find on my [Thingiverse](https://www.thingiverse.com/brienallison/designs) and [MyMiniFactory](https://www.myminifactory.com/users/Brien%20Allison) profile pages including an improved version of this design ['Octo-Iris Box'](https://www.myminifactory.com/object/3d-print-octo-iris-box-93150). I have also produced a general [Instructable guide](https://www.instructables.com/Decorative-Iris-Box-Guide/) on how to print my iris boxes to a high quality. The box (unscaled) is 80mm overall in diameter, has a 64mm wide container opening and is around 80mm tall. The part files are designed for M2x6 countersunk/flathead screws [such as these](https://www.amazon.com/uxcell-Stainless-Countersunk-Phillips-Machine/dp/B01L7PCX0G/ref=sr_1_10?keywords=m2x6mm+flat+head+screws&qid=1550096111&s=gateway&sr=8-10) (as with all my other designs); 40 screws are required in total for one box. The parts can be scaled to use larger or smaller screws e.g. the larger printed examples are at 150% scale and use M3x8 screws. There are two versions of the iris parts: plain flat parts and embossed decorated versions, designated with '(dec)' at the end. There is also a shortened version of the container 'Short Container', which reduces the height of the box from about 80mm to 40mm.
