I wanted a parametric hinged box, but not one of those where the lid is the same height as the box, they seemed to wasteful to my eyes. So I spent a while trying to figure out how I could do it, so rather than fully “print in place”, this parametric design prints the box and lid as separate pieces, then you just use a piece of cut filament to act as the “hinge pin”, just push it into the hinge with the lid in place.

The lid overlaps the base so provides a nice fit, but then I did add just a little catch to provide a bit more friction.

I've printed loads of these. all. in different sizes to keep all my nic nacks in.

Enjoy
