Lipstick Case
Description
Remixed from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2324413 Youtube Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T57RNcysZMs Made it longer to hold more now holds 18 ( requested mod by wife of course ! ) Fixed tolerances so it moves with minimal play or backlash, also all boxes line up now correctly when fully raised. Re modelled the rack and pinion to bare minimum length, so minimum rack hanging out of the top compared to the original, moved pivot/hinge point to achieve this. Left and right rack are simply glued in place, printed separately for better detail. Added a lock in notch when fully raised so it wont slam shut. Can now actually be assembled, in under a minute. To assemble, hold the lid in fully open position, insert the left and right gears through the box, into the lid as per photo, then with the lid fully opened, lower the 3 x shelves in their assembled position down onto the racks, make sure it lowers evenly on both left and right side or it may skip a tooth on one side. Done ! ****if the locking notch is too weak when fully loaded, heat the side with a hair dryer/heat gun and ever so slightly maybe 0.5 -1.0mm bow the wall inwards near the catch. I found that If the box is printed 100% infill no problems, but the less solid the more the wall will flex and the catch is weaker. Let it cool and all good!
