Aperture Box

An iris box design with 8 doors, producing a sliding octagonal aperture. I also named it the aperture box as it looks very similar to the Aperture Science logo from the Portal game universe. It is opened by twisting the handles on the doors in a clockwise direction.

I also have many more Iris box designs which you can find on my Thingiverse and MyMiniFactory profile pages including an improved version of this design 'Aperture-Iris Box'. I have also produced a general Instructable guide on how to print my iris boxes to a high quality.

The box is approximately 80mm wide, 80mm tall and has a 64mm container opening. The part files are designed for M2x6 countersunk/flathead screws such as these (as with all my other designs); 16 screws are required in total for the box. The parts can be scaled to use larger or smaller screws e.g. M3x8 screws at 150% scale.

Two versions of the container are included: the standard container which makes the box 80mm tall and a shortened container which makes it about 40mm tall.
